The origins of thistle
First of all, you should know that thistle refers to a wide range of thorny plants with highly honey-producing flowers. In other words, whose nectar is collected by bees to make honey. Even if the thorny plants side does not necessarily make you dream, they attract with the beauty and charm of their flowers of varied colors.
Thistle flowers are extremely present, particularly around the Mediterranean and also on some Atlantic coasts. They grow particularly well in dry and sunny places.
This is why we find it in Morocco, in particular. Thus, Moroccan Thistle honey often comes from the province of Essaouira. Port city in the Safi-Marrakech region. A magnificent region with splendid landscapes which allow for extremely rare and sublime honey.
