Sicilian Cardoon Honey Sicilian Cardoon Honey is produced in the months of June and July. It has a light amber color when liquid, tending toward ochre when it crystallizes spontaneously a few months after harvest into uniform crystals. It is very fragrant and with an equally intense flavor. Our Sicilian Cardoon Honey is produced in the Messina, Trapani, and Palermo areas during the months of June and July. Characteristics: Color: from light amber when liquid tending toward ochre when crystallized. Crystallization: spontaneous a few months after harvest, uniform crystals. Odor: very fragrant. Flavor: just as strong as the odor. Uses: has liver purifying properties. Ape Sicula: The Sicilian bee has greater genetic variance compared to any other subspecies of European honeybee, which is due to its African origins. Genetic variance means a larger number of genes that provide greater reactivity to any possible issues. Early development of the brood even with 8 or 9 frames between December and January enables having young bees, thus greater longevity and dynamism compared to Ligustica and other northern bees, which have a winter brood block. It is requested by growers for pollinating protected crops (watermelons, cantaloupes, strawberries, etc.) as it is, in its hardiness, active and functional in extreme tunnel conditions, where temperatures can range from 0° at night to 40° during the day. It is shown that in every hive only a small part of the bees goes out to forage, and of these, only about 20% collect pollen, so only these are able to pollinate the flower. Since pollen is necessary for the sustenance of the brood and the Sicilian bee has abundant brood year-round, many more bees are employed for pollen collection, which leads to the ability of Sicilian bees to pollinate larger crop areas with the same number of foragers. The Sicilian bee has very low honey consumption, allowing a greater probability of survival of the hive given the same amount of honey stores. Strong self-defense capabilities; in twenty-five years of work with the Sicilian bee and with Sicula F1, I have never experienced a hive or nucleus with a queen being pillaged.
