Franca Franzoni’s Chestnut Honey—collected from the chestnut forests high up in the Apennine Mountains between Tuscany and Emilia-Romagna—is for the serious honey lover. This deep amber Tuscan honey shines with sweet, woody aromas and rich notes of molasses, dark cocoa and a pleasant bitterness.
We love this honey!
This difficult to find honey is my absolute favorite. Thank you for offering it! Shipment came quickly, was well-packed.
i would like to try other specialty honeys
I use Franco Franzoni chestnut honey in my tea or drizzled over gruyere cheese, slightly melted on a square of Italian bread.
I've been buying Franzoni honey for years. If it lasted long in my cupboard, I can be assured it would never become crystalline as so many honeys do.
I don’t know how to describe this honey other than to say it has a slightly woodsy taste. It is not a subtle honey. It pairs nicely with a bold cheese and is lovely for bread baking, especially breads made with whole wheat and a touch of rye flours.
