Swiss Honey from Bregaglia

With heart and soul: locally and sustainably produced honey

When opting for Swiss honey, you’re not only selecting a high-quality natural product, but you’re also supporting local beekeeping families, farming that respects nature and the conservation of our bees and biodiversity.

At Swisspica, we highly value origin, quality and transparency. We source our honey from Switzerland – from the Gianotti beekeeping family in the beautiful Val Bregaglia. As a family-run business, they look after their bee colonies with experience and passion, carrying out every stage of the process themselves – from tending the hives to harvesting the honey and processing it.

Val Bregaglia honey – A natural treasure from the Swiss Alps

Bregaglia is one of Switzerland’s most impressive Alpine valleys. The diverse mountain flora, clean air and unspoilt nature create ideal conditions for bees.

Our Bregaglia honey reflects the richness of this extraordinary natural environment. The mountains’ climatic conditions and altitude typically allow for only one harvest a year which means that the honey remains particularly natural and retains the alpine flora’s flavours surrounding the beehives.

Every jar tells the story of this region, its nature and the people who work with utmost care in harmony with the seasons.

Swiss beekeepers – crafting with responsibility

A beekeeper’s work doesn’t end with the honey harvest. Throughout the year, beekeepers look after their bee colonies. They check the hives, promote the bees’ health and ensure that only mature honey is collected.

By opting for our Swiss honey, you’re supporting:

• regional family-run enterprises,
• short transport distances,
• sustainable Swiss beekeeping,
• the preservation of biodiversity
• and the bees’ pollination which is essential to our agriculture.

From the beehive to the candle

Our collaboration with the beekeeping family goes one step further. In addition to honey, we also source Swiss beeswax directly from them.

Our hand-poured beeswax candles are made from this high-quality natural product. This means we know exactly where our raw materials come from and can be confident of the highest quality and a transparent supply chain.

Each candle embodies genuine Swiss craftmanship, natural material and responsible production.
