Organic Greek Thyme Honey from the Peloponnese Harvest 2025

Honey itself has been a popular and well-loved food for millennia – but pure biological thyme honey, on the other hand, is mostly known among connoisseurs and gourmets in this country and is only widespread in the southern European countries. After all, the main ingredient, thyme, which does not particularly like the harsh winter climate in Germany, grows best under the Mediterranean sun and excellent climatic conditions. Greece, and especially the Peloponnese, are therefore ideal locations for extensive thyme fields that produce enough nectar to make the coveted honey.

We source our thyme honey from a small beekeeper in the Peloponnesian village of Trikorfo, who cares for his bee colonies with great passion and dedication. And you can taste it! Would you like to experience it for yourself? Don't worry, you don't have to travel to the Peloponnese for that – our Greek honey with thyme comes directly to your home. You can conveniently buy it online in our shop in a 450 g jar.

Since ancient times, the liquid gold has been used in traditional medicine and is still considered a proven home remedy for colds, which can relieve coughs and contribute to a better feeling in the throat. Real thyme is attributed a similar effect due to its essential oil content. In Greece, people swear by tasty, helpful thyme honey for coughs and colds – especially in combination with the mountain tea Sideritis Scardica. However, since the honey loses its "magical powers" already at 40 °C, meaning the enzymes and amino acids responsible for the beneficial effect are destroyed at this temperature, it should not be added to freshly brewed tea. But you can certainly enjoy it directly from the spoon with an aromatic hot drink – or you can wait until the tea has cooled down, if you can wait that long for the thyme honey.

Everyone in this country probably knows the classic honey bread as a sweet breakfast – but did you know that honey can also play an excellent role in savory dishes? Greek honey with thyme, in particular, gives hearty dishes an extraordinary note thanks to its spicy, strong aroma. Why not try a honey-mustard dressing with thyme honey in a salad or gratinate sheep's cheese with this delicacy? We promise: You won't get enough of it! You can, of course, also buy suitable organic Greek spices and real feta made from sheep's and goat's milk online at ARISTOS.
