Orange blossom honey
Melauro’s orange blossom honey comes from the blooming of citrus trees, particularly oranges, which occurs between April and May in Sicily. In its liquid state, this honey ranges from straw yellow to nearly colorless, while in its crystallized state, it turns white or light beige. It has a floral, fresh, and fragrant aroma reminiscent of orange blossoms (zagara), a signature scent of Sicily. Over time, its aroma develops, becoming slightly fruity, similar to orange marmalade.
This honey crystallizes naturally a few months after harvest, preserving its natural texture. With a sweet and slightly acidic taste, it is moderately intense and leaves a lasting floral sensation on the palate. Certified organic by ICEA, this honey is produced using natural beekeeping methods, with no alteration of its organoleptic properties.
