The year 2023 was particularly favorable for the harvest of Erica heather honey, which is obtained from the Erica heather. This hardy, hardy plant grows in shady areas and is widespread throughout the western half of France, particularly in the Landes region.

This honey is rich in trace elements and vitamins.

The state forests, rich in Erica heather and common heather, enable the production of different types of honey through different flowering times. The bees collect nectar and pollen from these pink understory flowers, which feeds the colonies until early fall and prepares them for winter.

Erica heather honey is characterized by its amber brown color that quickly becomes creamy. It remains creamy over time, although crystals may occasionally form.

Its intense flavor with caramelized notes makes it ideal for spreads, especially on bread with salted butter, and emphasizes its rich character.

Erica heather honey is ideal for both culinary preparations and as an accompaniment to various dishes such as pastries, sweets, yoghurts or hot drinks and is often spread on rusks for breakfast.
The protective properties of the heather plant are transferred to the honey obtained from its flowers. Due to its minerals and vitamins, it is a protective and health-promoting food with strengthening, mineralizing and antiseptic properties.

Manufacturer

The name Un apiculteur près de chez vous emerged in 2007 from the merger of two beekeepers, Rémy Vanbremeersch and Bruno Petit. They chose this name to remind Parisians that there is a beekeeper near them in Paris. Beekeeping mainly produces honey, pollen and beeswax. Queens and swarms are also bred to improve and expand the bee population. The two beekeepers operate 400 hives in Ile-de-France, 250 beehives and 400 micro-fertilization baskets for queen renewal.

The majority of the bee population is located near Fontainebleau in the Gâtinais French Regional Natural Park. During the season, some of the hives are sent on the move: to the Chantilly forest to harvest linden honey, to the Essonne for buckwheat honey and to the Marne for alfalfa honey. The company also has more than 60 beehives in Paris. Parisian honey is harvested in very different locations such as gardens, company roofs or the Bois de Vincennes. The urban honeys are fragrant and reflect the surprising botanical diversity of their surroundings. The city is planted with numerous linden trees and acacias, but also with Sophoras and Evodias.

useful information

HOW DO I STORE MY HONEY?

Honey is stored in a well-sealed jar at room temperature, in a dry place and protected from light.

HOW LONG CAN YOU STORE HONEY?

We indicate a best before date on the jars to indicate the freshness of the honey and in accordance with current EU regulations, but the honey can be safely consumed years after the date indicated on the jar.

MY LIQUID HONEY IS CRYSTALLIZED, IS IT STILL ENJOYABLE?

The crystallization of honey is a natural process that takes more or less time. The nectar collected by bees naturally contains glucose and fructose, which lead to crystallization. Liquid, crystallized honey is always good, but you can always warm it in a water bath for a few minutes to regain its original texture.

WHY IS HONEY SOMETIMES LIQUID AND SOMETIMES SOLID?

Honey consists of various sugars, which are present in different percentages depending on their plant origin. The higher the glucose content, the faster the honey crystallizes: after extraction, a spring honey crystallizes in less than 7 days, while an acacia or fir honey takes several years.

SHOULD YOU STORE HONEY IN THE REFRIGERATOR?

This is not recommended as the cold increases crystallization and thus hardening.

Everything you always wanted to know about honey...
If you are wondering why there is no "plop" when you open the honey and why the lid of the honey jar can be pressed in, I can put your mind at ease. This is how it should be and is a sign of quality.

This honey, like other high-quality and handcrafted honeys, is raw honey. This means that it was spun cold and not heated, so it is filled into the jars cold, which is why no vacuum is formed when the lid is closed, as is the case with the production of e.g. B. jam is common.
As is well known, this is filled hot into jars, which creates a vacuum in the jar when it cools down, which later becomes noticeable through the "pushed in" lid and the "plop" when opening.

Unlike industrially processed baking honey, cold-spun raw honey is very healthy: it contains valuable minerals such as magnesium, potassium, calcium, sodium and phosphorus as well as C and B vitamins. Thanks to certain enzymes, honey also has an antibacterial and antiseptic effect and can support digestion and the immune system.

As early as the Stone Age, people used honey as food, as shown in 9,000-year-old Stone Age cave paintings depicting "honey hunters". At first it was the only sweetener. Honey taken from wild bee colonies was also used as bait for bear hunting. Australian rock carvings show that Aborigines collected bush honey from stingless bees as far back as prehistoric times.

The origin of domestic beekeeping for the purpose of honey production is in the 7th millennium BC. believed to be in Anatolia. Honey was also found as a burial object in the tombs of the pharaohs in Egypt, because as the “food of the gods” it was praised as the source of immortality. Therefore, in ancient Egypt, a pot of honey was worth about the same as a donkey.
In ancient Greece it was mainly used to treat fever and to improve the performance of athletes at the Olympic Games.

Un Apiculteur près de chez vous - Miel de Paris

Wir betreiben über 80 Bienenstöcke in Paris, hauptsächlich im Osten der Stadt, in den Arrondissements 12, 19 und 20. Diese Bienenstöcke befinden sich auf den Dächern von Wohngebäuden und im Bois de Vincennes. Aufgrund der dichten Bebauung und der Angst der Bewohner vor Bienenstichen ist es schwierig, geeignete Standorte am Boden zu finden.

Unsere Bienen sammeln Nektar von einer Vielzahl von Pflanzen, darunter Akazien, Linden, Evodias, Sumachs, Ailantes, Orangenbäume, Jasmin und andere exotische oder aromatische Pflanzen, die typisch für die Stadt sind. Einmal haben wir einen Bienenschwarm von einem Jasmin auf einer Dachterrasse geerntet. Der Stadthonig zeichnet sich somit durch eine große florale Vielfalt aus.

Seit 2013 haben wir uns auf die Zucht von Königinnen spezialisiert, um sanftmütige und wenig schwarmfreudige Bienen zu züchten. Obwohl das Schwärmen ungefährlich ist, kann es bei manchen Menschen Panik auslösen. Daher wählen wir Bienenvölker aus Fontainebleau aus, die besonders sanft und schwarmträge sind, um in Paris gehalten zu werden.

Aufgrund der häufigen Fragen zum Pariser Honig haben wir eine Ernte vom CARI-Labor analysieren lassen. Diese Analysen sind online verfügbar. Menschen, die unseren Honig auf den Pariser Märkten probieren, sind oft überrascht von seiner aromatischen Komplexität und schenken ihn gerne ihren Verwandten oder Bekannten außerhalb von Paris. Pariser Honig wird auch oft zu Hochzeiten oder Taufen als originelles Geschenk verwendet, ebenso wie von Kommunikationsagenturen als Firmengeschenk oder für Veranstaltungen.

Unser Pariser Honig ist ein originelles, natürliches, französisches Geschenk, das direkt vom Erzeuger gekauft wird, ohne Zwischenhändler.

Remy Vanbremeersch und Bruno Petit
