THYME HONEY INDEED CRYSTALLIZES, AND THIS IS A NATURAL CONDITION. To prevent crystallization, processed Thyme Honey undergoes a process where it is heated, then cooled, and pollen is removed. This process is normally done to prevent crystallization. However, due to the high heat applied during this process, many of the vitamins, enzymes, minerals, and amino acids are destroyed, losing their potency, and the honey loses its natural and healthy properties. We preserve the natural quality of our Thyme Honey by filtering it from our honeycombs, allowing it to rest, and then packaging it. Sadik Tarim's Thyme Honey has many known benefits.

A high proline value is an indicator of whether bees are collecting nectar from nature and the nectar content. The amount of proline is a quality criterion in honey. Diastesia, another enzyme that is secreted from the stomachs of bees during the ripening of Thyme Honey, isSadik Tarim's Extracted Thyme Honey is another one of the enzymes transferred to our Diastesiavalue, which must be at least '8' according to the Turkish Food Codex Communiqué, is displayed as '16.67' in our product. The diastesia value is a result of research that is considered an indicator that the product has not been heat-treated and is natural. Another analysis that is very important in the test results is the Moisture Value tests. The moisture value test reveals the amount of water in the honey. This value plays a significant role in determining the maturity and shelf life of the honey. According to the Turkish Food Codex Communiqué, this value should be the highest, but it appears to be .67 in our Sadik Tarim Filtered Thyme Honey. A value greater than this is considered an indication that the honey was harvested early.Another criterion is that Sadik Tarim Thyme Honey must be free of sucrose.
