Have a little Languedoc at home!
Christian and Corinne of course, make honey…several delicious varieties of it actually. Different plants flower at different times so they can actually collect honey after the flowering of rosemary and thyme, after the fruit trees flowers and then after the grapes and wildflowers flower. Each honey is quite distinct in flavour and colour. They can make only between 5 and 15 kilos per year at the moment so production is very limited.
We were discussing this recently and wanted to see if people were interested in ordering packets of local products, which they could put together and mail to them. Something like 125 grams of honey, a bottle of local olive oil (which is excellent btw), and a sachet of fresh picked local herbs (rosemary, thyme, sage, oregano, bay leaf and a few others) which grow wild all over here. Christian has mailed herbs to me before and I can attest to the fact that there is nothing available in any store in the US that can compare to the flavours.
So if you’re interested please send me an email at mikeleb1959@ gmail.com. I would guess a whole package might be $25-35 plus shipping.
