Honey from the grass Sulla

The honey of sulla comes from a typically Italian plant, cultivated as a fodder. It belongs to the same family of acacia, and this justifies the color and flavor characteristics of the two varieties. The color is very light, milky white when the honey crystallizes.

The only difference with acacia honey lies in the gustatory examination: while acacia honey tastes of vanilla and sugared almonds, sulla honey has a characteristic vegetable, green taste, which, although of medium intensity, makes it recognizable. The nectar of sulla is one of the main components of wildflower honeys from central and southern Italy.
