Valuable products of the citrus family—lemon, orange, tangerine, and grapefruit—come to life in the Mediterranean climate with their refreshing flavors and fragrant scents. During their blooming season, they shine like gold, offering themselves to the bees to produce Sadik Tarim Extracted Citrus Honey. Honeybees, the world's most hardworking creatures, efficiently utilize the blooming period in our hives, carefully placed by our beekeepers during the season, to offer Citrus Honey to your kitchens.
Sadik Tarim Extracted Citrus Honey is produced and collected from citrus trees blooming in April and May over a three-week period. Obtained by bees from the nectar they collect from citrus trees, citrus honey, a storehouse of vitamin C, leaves a unique taste on your palate with its unique, soft texture. Its distinctive light yellow color and scent make it an insatiable delight the more you eat it.
CRYSTALLIZATION IS SURE TO OCCUR IN REAL AND NATURAL HONEYS, AND THIS IS PROOF THAT THE HONEY IS NATURAL. CRYSTALLIZATION IS THE PHENOMENON WHEN THE GLUCOSE SUGAR IN HONEY REACHES ITS SATURATION POINT OVER TIME AND SITTS TO THE BOTTOM. THIS IS WHY CITRUS HONEYS DEFINITELY CRYSTALLIZE, AND THIS IS A NATURAL OCCURRENCE. To prevent crystallization, processed citrus honey undergoes a process where it is heated, then cooled, and pollen is removed. This process is normally used to prevent crystallization. However, due to the high heat applied during this process, most of the vitamins, enzymes, minerals, and amino acids are destroyed and lose their effectiveness, thus losing the honey's natural and healthy properties.
Sadik Tarim's Extracted Citrus Honey has many known benefits. Experts say that thanks to its antioxidants, it reduces the risk of chronic diseases. Citrus Honey is rich in minerals such as zinc, magnesium, and calcium. With its low glycemic index, it meets the body's sweet cravings while also ensuring safe consumption. Another known benefit of Citrus Honey is its calming effect, soothing the nerves.
Sadik Tarim's Extracted Citrus Honey can be consumed solid or by thawing it in a jar of hot water (Bain-Marie Method) at a maximum temperature of 40 degrees Celsius. Citrus honey is used to sweeten foods and beverages. It can be consumed in herbal teas, by preparing a honey sherbet with lemon in the morning, in fruit salads, and with plain yogurt. It should not be consumed by babies under one year old and those with allergies to bee products.
