Just arrived! Tragano Greek Organics Pure & Raw Organic Greek Honey from the mountains of Crete.
This single-estate, organic honey is collected from wild thyme, sage, mountain tea (sideritis syriaca), and Cretan ebony (ebenus cretica) that grow in the mountains of the Greek island of Crete. Harvested in the spring, this thick honey is traditionally extracted to ensure that all the natural characteristics and nutritional benefits remain intact. With a full body, light color and high nutritional value, organic honey is a true wellness gift and an integral part of the healthy Mediterranean diet. Importantly, there are no preservatives, additives, artificial flavors nor colorants.
For the conscientious food lover, Tragano Greek Organics offers family-farmed, healthy, and authentically Mediterranean flavors. Their organic honey comes from the single estate of Manolis Stefanakis, who combines his deep scientific knowledge with three generations of bee-keeping traditions near Heraklion, Crete. It’s thick, rich flavor can be enjoyed morning, noon, and night for a healthy touch of sweetness on breakfast yogurt & oatmeal, in midday coffee or tea, mixed with extra virgin olive oil and freshly-squeezed lemon for a healthy salad dressing and so much more.
About Tragano Greek Organics
Tragano Greek Organics is part of a family-run company with a long experience in traditional Greek food and a deep commitment to the local community. Nikos Kostopoulos founded his company in 1929 and the Tragano brand is named after his rural Peloponnese village in western Greece, where the company is located. The region of Tragano (which also means “crispy” in English!) is famous in Greece for its high-quality produce and fertile land.
Tragano grew over the years from its initial specialization in pickled vegetables to also become a major producer of olives, olive oil, and sauces. Now in the third generation of family entrepreneurship, Tragano takes pride in the outstanding quality of their products and of the exceptional people working with them. They have developed long-lasting relationships with organic farmers from the community, allowing them to work with the shortest possible distance and time from harvest to processing to packaging. That makes their products of the highest possible quality and always traceable to the source.
Tragano has been certified by the Food Safety Mondernization Act (FSMA), BRC Global Standards, International Featured Standards (IFS), BSCI, USDA-organic, non-GMO project and ISO 22000 as meeting international food safety management standards. It is also Kosher-certified.
