In the shadow of the Apennines, where the hills of Benevento bask in the warm evening sun of southern Italy (dolce sera), lies Micco’s estate. Here, the bees gather the nectar of wild, unspoilt flora in complete tranquillity. This is not honey produced in a factory; this is pure alchemy of nature. Harvested by artisans who refuse to compromise with the times. Every jar is a sealed piece of Campania.
As soon as you open the jar, the aroma of warm, sun-kissed wildflowers and a subtle, almost mysterious spiciness wafts out. Pour it out and watch as a thick, viscous stream of deep, shimmering gold moves slowly.
On the palate, this honey is a sensation. It begins with a velvety, decadent sweetness that completely envelops your mouth. But immediately afterwards comes the masterful twist: a deep, layered gastronomic complexity that continues to linger in your throat. It is intense, refined and leaves you begging for another bite.
This liquid gold is the ultimate treat for your cheese board and dishes. It explores the interplay between savoury, creamy and sweet flavours:
The Holy Alliance: Let a rich golden stream slowly glide over a crumbly, salty piece of Pecorino Campano or a mature Parmigiano Reggiano. The saltiness of the cheese and the sweetness of the honey blend in a harmony that is almost spiritual.
The Sinful Combination: Drizzle it over a creamy, tangy Gorgonzola Dolce. The strong blue veins are instantly tamed by the silky honey, creating an incredibly creamy explosion of flavour.
Het Atelier van de Chef: Flinterdun gesneden, zoute prosciutto of zachte lardo, subtiel glanzend gemaakt met een toets Dolcesera. Of sluit de avond af door het te serveren over lauwwarme, fluweelzachte ricotta met verse vijgen.
