From the mountains

From Zebar Mountains, Akre.

Every MAL product begins in the landscape around Akre: the hillsides, meadows and gardens of the Zebar Mountains, and the seasons that move across them.

The land

A landscape that shapes the taste.

High meadows, wild flowers, clear water and mountain air. The land around Zebar gives each season its own character, and that character finds its way into what we make.

We do not try to make every jar taste the same. Honey from one season will be a little different from the next, as it should be.

Following the seasons

The year sets the pace.

  1. Spring

    The hillsides turn green and the first blossoms open. Bees return to work across the valleys.

  2. Summer

    Long, warm days. Herbs are gathered at their best and dried slowly in the shade.

  3. Autumn

    Sumaq ripens to a deep red, and honey is collected when it is ready.

  4. Winter

    The kitchen is busiest. Preserves are made and the pantry is filled for the year ahead.
