Four distinct flavours, the same organic honey base.

    A resinous spoonful for colder days Young pine shoots, hand-picked in the Kamnik–Savinja Alps. Forest freshness on a spoon for the days that smell of winter.

How our honey preparations are made.

From fresh ingredients to the finished jar. Extraction, low-temperature concentration and careful blending.

Process steps 01 / 04

Scroll down

  1. 01 · GATHERING

    Fresh from the forest and the field.

    Pine shoots, echinacea and wild thyme are gathered fresh. Beetroot and pomegranate are pressed into fresh juice, and Cviček arrives straight from the Dolenjska vineyards. Every ingredient is organically grown.

    01 / 04
  2. 02 · MACERATION

    Extracting the botanical ingredients.

    The fresh herbs are steeped in strong organic alcohol and left for several weeks to release their character. In the next step, the vacuum still removes all of the alcohol. Fresh-pressed juices and Cviček skip maceration and go straight to the still.

    02 / 04
  3. 03 · THE VACUUM STILL

    Vacuum distillation below 32 °C.

    The macerate is concentrated in the rotary evaporator: under vacuum, the water and all of the alcohol evaporate below 32 °C. The concentrate keeps its colour and aroma, and the preparation is completely alcohol-free.

    03 / 04
  4. 04 · INTO THE HONEY

    Blended with organic honey.

    The concentrate is gently folded into raw organic honey from the Kočevje forests. No heating and no preservatives. What stays in the jar is the character of the ingredient, captured in honey.

QUESTIONS?

Frequently asked questions

Are the products suitable for children?

Honey preparations are not suitable for children under one year. Echinacea is intended for children aged 3 and over, while stinging nettle is not recommended under 12. Beetroot, pine shoots and wild thyme have age-adjusted serving amounts.

Where does the sweetness come from?

The sweetness comes mainly from organic honey. Beetroot, fruit concentrates and herbal extracts add colour, tartness or a distinct herbal character.

Can you taste the beetroot?

Cold concentration and blending with honey soften beetroot's characteristic earthy note. The finished flavour is sweet, fruity and pleasant.

Can I use several products at the same time?

Do not automatically combine several products into one serving. Follow the amount and warnings for each product; if you take medication or have a medical condition, ask a doctor or pharmacist before combining them.

What if the honey crystallises?

Crystallisation is natural. To liquefy the honey, warm the jar slowly in water no hotter than 35°C.

How should I store a honey preparation?

Keep the jar at room temperature up to 25°C and away from direct light. Do not heat the honey preparation above 40°C.
