The characteristics of Mt. Rokko honey
Highly pure and clear taste
"Mt. Rokko Bee Yamamitsu (Acacia honey)" is characterized by its beautiful clear color.
It features a clear color and taste that stands out even compared to other domestic acacia honey.
A source of honey from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain
At the foot of the mountain at an early stage, the source of nectar gradually spreads toward the summit, so you can collect nectar from a variety of flowers for a long period. We will deliver this as "Rokko Mountain Bee Yamamitsu".
The rich nature of Mt. Rokko nurtures
Please enjoy the blessings brought about by the rich nature of the vegetation rather than the environment where the fields are maintained by humans.
Story until Rokko bee and honey bee are made
Bees are familiar creatures that teach us the richness of nature. The environment where bees can live comfortably is a place where people and other animals can live comfortably. We will deliver honey grown in the rich nature of Mt. Rokko.
The bees tell their friends where the delicious nectar is, while doing a "swing dance" in a figure eight.
The nest board is full of honey collected by bees.
It is easy to remove honey by scraping the "beeswax" that covers the nest board with a knife.
Turn the handle with a centrifuge and you'll see golden honey!
The bottled honey has a natural taste. Yamamitsu is also used in cooking, sweets, and cosmetics.
