THE SWEETEST MUSEUM
Sweet, smooth, aromatic, delicious with pine nuts or walnuts, rosemary, arbutus... and very nutritious. This is the honey of Rancho Cortesano de Jerez, who have been beekeepers for 30 years and have opened a very, very sweet Museum for the public. A museum for all ages where you can see how bees work and have a fun time dressed up as a beekeeper.
Rancho Cortesano has around 2,000 beehives spread throughout the province of Cadiz, especially in the natural park of Grazalema and Los Alcornocales. Each year they usually produce between 30,000 and 40,000 kilos of honey.
THE IMPORTANCE OF BEES
In the Museum you can buy and taste a wide variety of products: jars of thousand-flower honey, holm oak honey, eucalyptus honey, orange blossom honey, rosemary honey, honey delicacies as well as meloja, pollen, royal jelly and soaps.
The visit to the Museum also shows the importance of bees in pollination and the formation of fruits and seeds. In fact, Rancho Cortesano also has an organic orchard where a great variety of fruit trees grow: mango, custard apple, pear, apple, almond, orange and olive trees.
ORGANIC HONEY
Rancho Cortesano produces organic honey, has the Parque Natural brand of the Consejería de Medio Ambiente de la Junta de Andalucía and its products are sold in gourmet shops in Spain and Germany.
