Organic Sicilian honey tasting and beekeeping tour

Nestled in the heart of Sicily, amidst the untouched beauty of the Iblei Mountains, lies Oliva 1850. This organic beekeeping company is a custodian of knowledge passed down through six generations. Here, time seems to dance to the rhythm of nature, and the practice of beekeeping takes on a nomadic character. The hives are relocated between various blooms across the island, allowing the bees the liberty to gather diverse nectars. This reverence for natural cycles results in distinctive honeys that narrate the tale of Sicily's terrain, seasons, and landscapes.During your visit, you'll have the opportunity to step into the apiary and witness hive life at close quarters. It's a chance to understand the role of bees, the structure of their colony, and the journey from bloom to honey harvest, all carried out with slow, deliberate, and eco-friendly actions. Your experience culminates with a guided tasting session of organic Sicilian honeys. The varied aromas, textures, and shades will help you identify the origin and characteristics of each honey. This authentic encounter, steeped in nature, time, and respect for bees, offers a sensory voyage that unfolds the story of Sicily one taste at a time.
