Product Information

• How much do the-jars cost?
You can find all the information about the prices by entering our webshop here.

• Do Melliris jars have an expiration date?
The honey itself doesn`t expire, in the classic meaning (that is, changing its properties and chemical composition so that human consumption is inadequate and/or dangerous). But due to its properties, it is considered an aliment and the proper laws apply.
That is why Melliris honey has an expiration period of 2 years. The expiration date can be found on every cap.

• What filtration process does Melliris use?
When collecting honey from the hives, there are different environmental particles (strictly from the hive) that end up in the honey itself: bees` wax, bees` residues, etc.
At Melliris, we use bio-textile filters in order to mechanically filter these particles, without interfering in the natural pollen content.

• How many calories does a –Melliris jar contain?
There are 304 kcal in 100 grams of honey, so the 150 grams jar has 456 kcal and 300 grams jar has 912 kcal.
The amount of calories is due mostly to the carbohydrates/sugars content, but please keep in mind that due to the glucose/fructose split and general ratio, the human body benefits much more from honey than any other sugar-based product.

• Do the Melliris jars contain allergens?
None of the Melliris products contains allergens such as gluten, lactose, or nuts. These are 100% allergen free.

• What is the difference between the types of honey?
While having similar chemical composition (except for honeydew/forest honey), the content of pollen and volatile oils give the specific taste and smell of each type of honey. You`ll find more information about honey here.

City honey vs. wild honey

City honey is a modern type of honey, obtained by the bees whose hives have been moved to the city. Many different ecologic organisms sustain this project, that targets both more health for the cities and a warmer, biologically diverse environment for the bees.

In any other aspects, city honey is a regular honey- its properties are the same as those of the honey obtained in the wild/outside cities. Bees produce honey in the same way, no matter where they are.

At Melliris, we choose traditionally obtained honey, as we think it brings us all closer to nature- the source of authentic luxury.
