BARE BERGENSK
The three apiaries at Christinegård in Sandviken, on the Grieghallen rooftop and at the Viking Church in Fantoft produce local neighbourhood honey with unique tastes. Each depends on the specific flora within the 3km flight radius around the hives and varies from year to year and from location to location.
We harvest honey twice a year to capture the destinctive tastes of spring and summer.
Spring honey is usually made from the bloom of early flowers, fruit trees, maple trees, raspberries and a variety of flowers from parks and gardens all over Bergen.
The Bergen summer honey is generally dominated by Lindentrees and Fireweed. However, the specific composition and taste changes from year to year depending on the season and weather conditions.
Taste the flavour of your neighbourhood!
FROM THE COMB
The honeyframes from each location are harvested and extracted separately. Honey consists of sugar (a sucrose-, sacrose-, fructose- mix), water, vitamins, enzymes, pollen, minerals and amino acids. In order to preserve the full potential of all the active ingredients in raw honey, we do not heat or treat it in any other way within the process. The result is local, fresh raw honey just as the bees eat it.
TO THE JAR
The honey from the different neighboorhoods is jarred into individual glasses and distributed straight to our customers.
