Dr. Pescia Honey

At a cocktail party, you tend to:

a) trail your date like a drone.
b) queenly commandeer attention.
c) busy yourself working the room.

If you chose bee (any of the above), we have the honey for you.

Second-generation beekeeper Paolo Pescia transfers his apiaries to pollinating fields throughout the Tuscan hillside (think free-range bee colonies) to produce incredible all-natural Italian honeys.

A little of his sulla- (a Tuscan wildflower) flavored sweetness makes your tea a treat. Or smother the rich chestnut variety over soft chevre. The delicate acacia tops off your breakfast toast or becomes decadent over ice cream.

Producing the perfect mellow buzz.
