Honeydew Honey

Our honeydew honey comes from the pastoral area of Klenovica-Smokvica, from the field maple (lat. acer campestre), which is the species of maple after which Klenovica got its name. This dark forest honey (honeydew honey) helps people with anaemia, particularly those who lack iron. Full of taste and rich in minerals, it has a positive effect on the respiratory organs.

Savory Honey

Golden-yellow nectar honey with a reddish hue, exuding an exquisite aroma, is derived from the flowers of savory species (mountain savory, lat. Satureja subspicata; and coastal savory, lat. Satureja montana). These plants bloom in shades of purple and white from early August in the hills to October on the sea coast. The herb is exceptionally rich in essential oils, resulting in a honey that is both fragrant and pure.

Sage Honey

Sage honey is the most highly appreciated type of honey. Ours is made from coastal sage growing on rocky soil from which it absorbs its energy, while bees turn it into honey. Sage grows on the steep, bare, windswept slopes of Klenovica and Smokvica, which descend steeply into the Velebit channel. It is fried by the relentless summer sunshine. Sage means salutary.

At the beginning of June, when the summer sun is warm enough to dry off the dew on the coastal plants, we move the bees up to the hills. This is up to a height of 800m above sea level, to the untamed natural haven that is offered by the forests and meadows. It is here, in the home of the brown bear where life buzzes with great vigour, that this irreplaceable elixir of raspberries, clover, lime, thyme, calamintha, dandelion, white horehound, wild carrots, and meadow sage is created.

We continue the beekeeping tradition of my grandfather, the forest warden Mate Padjen, who, thirty years ago, bequeathed us several hives and a mission summarized in the following:
