Meligyris – Malotira & Thyme Honey

Is a herb known since the age of Dioskourides (1st century AD) that has always grown in the mountains of Western Crete – Lefka Ori and Psiloritis with altitudes of 900-2000m (2952- 6561 ft.). Cretans were quick to discover its medicinal properties and began using the plant to treat common colds as well as diseases of the stomach and respiratory tract. When Venetian conquerors were introduced to the medicinal herb, they named it Malotira after the Latin words male (illness) and tirare (drag, push away); the panacea that pushes away all illness.
