Character
Sought after by top chefs and connoisseurs, Leos' fine lavender honey is renowned for its intense fragrance, great finesse, and subtle, floral taste.

Fragrance: Subtle, delicate, and fruity aromas with a more intense and complex scent than traditional lavender honey.
Storage Lavender honey can be stored for up to two years. To maintain its properties, keep it away from UV rays, humidity, and heat.

Our recommendation:
The intensity of its fragrance and its subtle, floral and slightly tangy taste make it an ideal choice to be enjoyed with a spoon or to accompany desserts (pastry, fruit salads, ice creams, yogurts, etc.), herbal teas or teas. Many great chefs have created recipes using fine lavender. Make sure the spoon is "extra-fin" just like this MIEL. #letsgetaddicted
About the artisans:
My first encounter with Domaine de Leos was through their olive oil—and let me tell you, my pupils went wide and angels sang “Ecstasy of Gold”. I thought I knew olive oil, but this was a revelation. Then I tried their honey and confitures, and I was completely blown away. These have become my absolute favourites.
Domaine de Leos is the result of years of dedication to quality and sustainability, turning a historic estate into a producer of exceptional olive oil, honey, and more—praised by top French chefs. Want to learn more about their story and other artisans? Head to our Artisans page!
