Bee Sweet is a Cretan honey, primarily thyme-based, from a remote area in the Greek province of Chania on Crete, far from civilization.
Fylladitakis is a family business that has been keeping bees and producing Greek thyme honey in Crete for 50 years. Pavlos Fylladitakis is a second-generation beekeeper. He grew up surrounded by nature, among the bees, and now heads the family business. His goal is to continue producing top-quality thyme honey by exclusively using traditional production methods.
Cretan thyme honey is widely known for its purity and high nutritional value, partly due to the rich Cretan flora that supports a natural and organic environment. It is one of the few areas with extensive thyme and pine vegetation where no other intensive agriculture takes place.
Fylladitakis has its own production workshop in Kakodiki, in the province of Chania. He manages over 1,000 beehives, spread across Crete in carefully selected areas where conditions are optimal. These locations are ideal for the bees to collect pure pollen and do their work undisturbed.
The characteristic taste and valuable nutrients of this thyme honey are due to the indigenous flora of the island of Crete.
