Mel das Terras Altas do Minho

This high-quality honey is produced in the mountainous areas of Viana do Castelo, Porto, and Aveiro in northwestern Portugal, where heavy rainfall and the absence of urban centres and local industry, and thus the lack of airborne pollutants, make for the best honey possible.

This wildflower honey has a liquidy texture, a dark brown color, and a strong scent of heather. This honey can be consumed as is, spread on a slice of bread, or used to make desserts and traditional pastries. In the past, this honey was used instead of money to execute business transactions and pay the taxes – further proof of just how good it is.
