Honey
MELLONA - ASSIA MARE LTD
|
On a blossoming farm in Fasouri, Michalakis Pratsis and his family have created a small beekeeping workshop where they make exquisite honey spreads. They named them Mellona who according to mythology was the patron nymph of honey bees.
 Mellona honey spreads are prepared out of raw honey blended with selected products of Cyprus, such as carobs, grapes, almonds and hazelnuts. They have perfectly balanced flavours, fine Mediterranean aromas and distinctive smooth texture.
Michalakis loves healthy, natural food and also unique gourmet flavours. Mellona combine both. By using only natural and raw ingredients the full authentic flavour of honey, carobs, grapes and dry nuts used, can be tasted to the maximum. Furthermore, the least possible amount of processing during production guarantees their high nutritional value.
Mellona honey spreads are currently available in five excellent flavours: Original (Raw honey), Carob (Raw honey with carob syrup), Grape (Raw honey with grape must), Almond (Raw honey with ground almonds) and Hazelnut (Raw honey with ground hazelnuts).
 They can be enjoyed by the spoonful straight from the jar or spread on a morning toast, crepes and waffles. They pair perfectly with a variety of cheeses. With yoghurt or ice cream they make delightful deserts. Mellona - Carob is fabulous over a fresh cheese like Anari. It can also be mixed with wine vinegar to create an exceptional salad dressing. Mellona - Grape is fantastic over grilled cheese like Halloumi. Mellona Almond and Hazelnut are wonderful in milkshakes or a homemade ice-cream.
Raw Honey: It is the purest form of honey. It is the honey that comes straight from the honey comb without heating, without pasteurization or any kind of processing. It is the healthiest choice amongst the various forms of honey as it has the most nutritional value and high antioxidant level. It is characterized by smooth creamy texture and contains particles of bee pollen, and propolis which are only as healthful as the honey itself. It also contains amylase, an enzyme which helps predigest starchy foods like breads.
Mellona offers quality products with authentic Mediterranean aromas and great nutritional value!
