Beekeeper — Voh — Mangrove honey

An apiary between sea and mangrove

In the commune of Voh, world-famous for its mangrove 'Heart', Marc Puig sets up his hives along the lagoon, as close as possible to the mangrove trees. A rare terroir where the honey takes on mineral, iodised notes, echoing this environment between land and sea.

A harvest set by the tides

The lagoon's proximity sets its own calendar: Marc adapts his harvests to the mangrove trees' flowering cycles, a delicate exercise that demands constant observation of this unusual environment.

A honey found nowhere else

OROA's mangrove honey is a rarity: few Caledonian beekeepers work this demanding terroir. Marc Puig has made it his specialty, offering enthusiasts an amber, mineral honey found nowhere else.
