Icod de los Vinos Bee Farm Tour
Icod de los Vinos Bee Farm Tour
At the scheduled time, we'll meet at the entrance of the Ecoalpispa bee farm, located in the municipality of Icod de los Vinos. Always wanted to learn how honey is produced? You've come to the right place!
To start the visit, we'll enter the bee farm's museum, a center that will serve as an introduction to the world of honey. We'll explain all the stages that are followed to obtain this product, from the hive to the packaging.
We'll also discuss the typical vegetation of Tenerife and how the nectar of the island's flowers influences the different aromas of the honey. Afterward, we'll visit the workshop, the honey extraction room and the laboratory, showing you how each area works, before giving you time to visit the bee farm's shop.
Then comes the best part: we'll head to the tasting room to sample several types of honey! We'll talk about the protected Miel de Tenerife denomination of origin while you enjoy the aromas and flavors of the different varieties.
After an hour and a half visit, the tour will conclude at the Ecoalpispa bee farm.
