Honey: The Honey of Acino Verde

L'Acino Verde is an agricultural business, run by the Federici family, in a place called Belvedere Ostrense (in the province of Ancona, Italy), about 300 metres above sea level. The Federici family keeps bees and cultivates olives; they produce honey, extra-virgin olive oil, and cosmetic products based on their own olive oil.
