About Us
The essence of our brand, where passion for nature meets the tradition of beekeeping.
Tradition always current
The management of the beehives, working in sync with the dynamics of the climate and natural biodiversity, allows us to collect honeys with flavours and perfumes of rosemary, soagem, Persian clover, poejos, alecrins and mist sap from the Alentejo cork oak forest.
For four generations, the Pirata family in the municipality of Montemor-o-Novo has been taking part in this ancient tradition, which is always renewed with new knowledge and know-how from the field.
Sustainability
Our processes respect the natural functioning of the hive, where techniques such as artificial insemination and clipping the queen bee's wings do not exist. It is also through our ethical code that we obtain a honey that is always pure with the lowest level of processing, thus preserving its organoleptic and nutritional quality.

In addition to his work as a beekeeper, Paulo is also an advocate for the environment and the preservation of bees. He is dedicated to educating the community about the importance of bees in pollination and the balance of ecosystems.
