Fresh, natural and genuine
There are many factors to define the quality of honey. The first
is how genuine
it is. The addition of any other ingredient is illegal for every
commercial honey. No conservatives, colouring or flavourings: the
aroma and the colour of honey are those that come directly from
the plants visited by the bees.
Among foodstuffs, honey is one of the products that can best guarantee
the absence of any residue or external substance. There are many
restrictive laws to protect consumer health and the very nature
of honey. Bees collect a nectar which is well protected inside the
flowers' corollas.
Other important factors for quality are the fact that honey can
easily be kept for a long time, keeping fresh. It is possible that
honey could contain an excess of water and this could cause it to
ferment. Freshness is information that can usually be found on the
label,
