11. THE SIMMERINGER Honey (120g)

Organic District and Location Honeys from the Vienna District Beekeeping

In Simmering, it’s all about reciprocity. Our bees pollinate the plants of the organic nursery Auer and, in return, enjoy a great location and plenty of food sources.

The organic district honey from the Vienna District Beekeeping is produced exclusively at the designated location and contains nectar and pollen from the surroundings of the beehive site – usually collected within a maximum radius of 3 km.

The Vienna district bees collect honey locally in all districts of Vienna – taking regionality to the next level. Each honey has its own aroma, its own color, and its own character. Each district honey is harvested and filled separately. Nothing is blended. Where district and location are labeled, district and location are inside.

The bees are allowed to work on the honey throughout the entire season, so all types of blossoms (linden, acacia, and many more) are represented in the district honeys.

We are guests with our bees on the rooftops of wonderful Viennese hotels, with bee-friendly residents who have opened their properties to bees, at Caritas am Himmel, and in vineyards in Liesing, Hernals, and Floridsdorf.
