Honey, herbs & products of mainland nature

The natural environment of the region is conducive to the production of high-quality natural products. The mainland honey, mainly from fir, chestnut, and wildflowers, stands out for its taste and aroma.

At the same time, aromatic plants and herbs, such as mountain tea, oregano, and thyme, are collected or cultivated using traditional methods. 

Mainland cuisine is closely tied to the region’s herbs, which is why it makes use of distinctive herbs and spices such as sweet marjoram; meanwhile, in the mountainous areas, we find the unique species of orchids from which salep is produced.
