Artisanal honey preserved in its natural honeycomb frame (wooden hive frame), sourced from beehives located in Atonilco, Jalisco, a region recognized for its abundant citrus blossom including orange, grapefruit, lemon, and common sage. Presented intact in its original structure, preserving the natural beeswax and honey without aggressive filtration or heating processes, maintaining its natural enzymes, floral compounds, and authentic aromatic profile.
Organoleptic Properties:
Light amber color. Fresh floral aroma with delicate citrus notes. Smooth and balanced flavor with a subtle natural acidity characteristic of citrus blossom honey. Viscous texture in the honey and firm structure in the comb, with clean, fresh beeswax.
Suggested Uses:
Ideal for direct consumption in gourmet boards, premium breakfast presentations, pairing with soft and aged cheeses, natural yogurt, artisanal breads, mixology applications, herbal infusions, or as a distinctive ingredient in healthy cuisine and artisanal pastry.

Weight may vary slightly due to the artisanal nature of the product and the natural honey content within each frame.
Storage and Handling:
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Refrigeration is not required. In warm climates, honey may become more fluid; in colder temperatures, natural crystallization may occur, which does not affect quality.
Freshness Criteria:
The comb should display mostly capped cells (sealed by the bees), uniform light amber color, and a fresh citrus floral aroma. Beeswax must appear firm, clean, and free of fermentation signs. Natural crystallization is an indicator of purity and does not alter its properties.
Seasonality:
Primarily harvested during the citrus flowering season in Jalisco, depending on annual climatic conditions.
Origin:
Atonilco, Jalisco, Mexico.
Citrus blossom honey typically contains higher concentrations of aromatic volatile compounds derived from orange and lemon nectar, which contribute to its fresh and slightly bright flavor profile.
