HONEES™ drops are made in a small family-owned factory in northern Italy, in the foothills of the Alps. Beginning in 1923, the company’s first products were jars of pure honey from the family’s own beehives. In 1932 the first honey-filled drops began production, with each drop wrapped by hand! Today, the same family produces HONEES™ natural drops in the same (now modernized) factory.

Hazelnuts are used in the factory for other products. All of our lines are meticulously cleaned between production runs.
