Cantabria Honey “Honey production in Cantabria”

Back

Javier Agüero Gorrochategui, owner of an apiary in Cantabria, will offer an overview of his operation and the different types of beekeeping farms in the sector. He will explain how the hive functions when focused on honey production, distinguishing it from other products such as royal jelly, pollen, propolis, or bee breeding, in which they specialize. He will also present the varieties of honey produced in Cantabria and along the Cantabrian Coast, together with the flowering periods, harvest seasons, and transhumance practices. Finally, he will give a brief explanation of the honey extraction and packaging process.
