Miele Melata d'Abete

Produced between July and August, when bees collect the sugary secretion from fir tree parasites.
It shows rare and complex characteristics. Coloured dark amber, sometimes with greenish hues, it presents a typical fragrance of resin and balsam, very persistent to the palate, not very sweet and with marked tones of malt and caramel with smoky hues.
