The bees of Antonio Simone, a 4thgeneration beekeeper who takes pride in producing honey in a traditional way without adding or taking away anything. Antonio's hives are mainly based in the ain ranges of north of Madrid. His beekeeping practices and the land he has his hives on have been certified as by the Committee of Agriculture in Madrid Why Raw Honey is different to Processed Honey - Raw honey generally means the honey has not been processed, it has come from the hive to the jar with minimal interference. Most supermarket honey is highly processed to make it look more attractive. It will often have had almost all its filtered out, been pasteurised at high heats and then blended with honeys from many different places. Raw honey tends to vary from batch to batch, this is because it is not processed in a factory, filtered or heated to look geneous, it changes with the season and climate and what the bees feed on, we will update this fact sheet according to which batch we currently have in.
