Whilst Dolcesera and Castagno each have a distinct, dominant character, Micco’s Millefiori honey is a masterful symphony of nature. In the flower-filled meadows and rolling hills of Campania, bees gather nectar from thousands of different wildflowers, herbs and blossoms. As nature cannot be forced, every harvest is unique. This is the ultimate expression of the Italian terroir: pure, vibrant and unprocessed, sealed in a jar by the Micco family.
Look at the jar and you’ll see a stunning, light, warm amber colour that reflects the pure sunshine of southern Italy. When you open the jar, a lively bouquet is released. It’s like walking through a blossoming Italian orchard on a summer’s morning: floral, fresh, with subtle hints of citrus blossoms and wild herbs.
On the palate, this Millefiori is a revelation for anyone accustomed only to supermarket honey. Its texture is wonderfully fluid and it melts instantly on the tongue. The flavour is elegantly sweet, but is immediately followed by a refined, fresh complexity and a smooth, fruity finish. It is a harmonious masterpiece that never grows tiresome and enhances any palate.
Wildflower honey is your most versatile ally in the kitchen. Thanks to its perfectly balanced flavour, it is the best flavour enhancer, bringing out the best in other ingredients without overpowering them:
The Chef’s Patisserie: The secret ingredient for top-of-the-range desserts. Drizzle it over homemade panna cotta, lemon tartlets or a pistachio parfait. It adds a depth of flavour that ordinary sugar can never match.

Gastronomic Vinaigrette: Chefs use this Millefiori to emulsify exclusive dressings and marinades. It is perfect when combined with a high-quality olive oil and a dash of mature balsamic vinegar on a salad with figs and goat’s cheese.
