Harvested in Italy, this monofloral honey from cherry is offered by Comptoir du Miel as part of a strong ethical partnership with the beekeeper, and an ecological one in view of the bees’ living conditions.
The apiaries are located in the heart of nature, benefiting from pure, pesticide-free air.
From late spring onwards, under the warming rays of sunshine and with the blossoms announcing tasty, nutrient-packed fruit, the bees take it in turns to pollinate the wild cherry orchard, directly benefiting the trees’ well-being and quality of life.
Just as precious as all fruit honeys, cherry honey is the product of a delicate balance between nature and craftsmanship that should be protected and encouraged:
As seventy percent of fruit trees on the planet, the cherry tree needs bees and their regular visits to fertilize its flowers and produce the delicious fruit that will delight all its fans.

The chokecherry was once used by the Norwegians, who extracted a dye from the bark. Taken in autumn, cherry bark dyes wool orange or dark brown, depending on the process used.
In Russia, the cherry tree is used in basketry for its supple olive-green or reddish-brown twigs.
