Cardoon honey – Organic
Produced in the Sicilian countryside from cardoon blooms that flourish between May and July, Melauro’s cardoon honey is a certified organic honey. Its color ranges from light amber with orange hues to darker shades, and it naturally crystallizes over time. On the palate, it offers a complex flavor that is both sweet and slightly bitter, with persistent floral and aromatic notes that evoke the wild beauty of Sicily. This honey reflects the characteristics of the cardoon plant—a hardy and resilient species—and carries with it the fragrances and flavors of Sicilian fields.
