Description

The production of organic chestnut pollen by Simone Coppola's Apicoltura Avìe occurs in a natural and sustainable way. Bees collect pollen during chestnut flowering in the Langhe. Production begins with the collection of chestnut inflorescences during flowering. The inflorescences are carefully selected, making sure to collect only the high quality ones. Subsequently, they are placed in clean containers and transported to our laboratory in La Morra, in the Langhe area, to be processed. Once they arrive in the laboratory, the inflorescences are gently dried to preserve all their nutritional properties. The unwanted parts, such as petals and stamens, are then separated, leaving only the pure pollen. This process occurs manually or using specific machinery at low speed to avoid damage to the pollen itself. After separation, the organic chestnut pollen is packaged in airtight containers to guarantee its freshness and preservation of its properties.
