Origin
Pyrénées Ariégeoises, France

They sometimes call it the acacia of the mountains: the mountain rhododendron of the Pyrenees. Hédène harvests its Rhododendron Honey from it in the Pyrénées Ariégeoises Regional Natural Park. Light in color and creamy in texture, it offers a sweet, fruity fragrance, a delicate note of rose, and a subtle lemony finish: a mild, refined honey. Pair it with a Tomme des Pyrénées, or drizzle it over fromage blanc or a fruit salad.
