Delicious & well priced, but despite being packed well, still arrived dented
Delicious and much less expensive than buying in smaller quantities.I use a little squeeze on my greek yogurt over fruit every morning for breakfast. It gives just enough sweetness without the sugary flavor of pre-sweetened yogurts.I enjoy the greek yogurt flavor more than other honeys because it I feel it has a hint of savoriness to it giving it a little more character.Although very well packed and still usable, both cans arrived with dents in them. I'm only pointing this out because I ordered two of these intending to give one as a gift. I don't mind a dented can in my pantry, but hated to give a gift that looked damaged.

has a wonderful balance of mild sweetness and herbaceous character
This honey, which is made on Crete, has a wonderful balance of mild sweetness and herbaceous character. Nice big resealable tin and a very fair price makes this ideal for my everyday use. Orino is not a "boutique" producer but this does not diminish the quality one bit. Greeks use a lot of honey and larger containers like this are a household staple. Do not confuse it with the industrialized adjunct honey common in the USA. This is thick, dark and delicious stuff. Very highly recommended.

For the honey lovers
I always thought I knew what honey tasted like. That is, until I visited Crete. Cretin honey is truly out of this world. It's an excellent honey with a distinctive hint of rhyme and fresh flowers. Great over yogurt or in tea. I don't think I will ever buy "generic" honey again!!

Yummy Honey
Visiting Greece and eating their yogurt and honey as part of breakfast has spoiled me forever! Now all I want is Greek honey. Luckily Orino is available through Amazon and it fits the bill very nicely. It is so tasty and yummy. I recommend pouring a tablespoon over plain Greek yogurt (Fage is my favorite).

Great honey. Great price
Great honey. Great price. The only issue was the packaging that amazon's fulfillment center used, four of them came leaking, but were all credited with just one phone call. I am sure they will change the way they send these next. I eat honey every day with my cereal for years. Greek and New Zealand honey are the two I usually eat.

not like any other honey
I purchased two different thyme honeys. This Orino, and another one that cost over twice as much. The more expensive one came in first. The taste was unusual, not like any other honey. Then the Orino came in and to my surprise tasted exactly the same, I mean exactly. The were both very thick and clear (a good thing). The taste is almost the same as horehound old fashioned hard candies. If you ever had those you would know it is a unusual taste. Not to my liking hence the 4 stars.

My new go-to honey
My new honey of choice. I've tried a lot of manuka, clover, tupelo, organic raw and locally sourced brands. I prefer this one for its balanced flavor, consistency and easy to use jar (for preparing teas and desserts mainly).

Pretty Good
I just did a taste-comparison between this honey and the last bit of the honey I brought back from Crete last summer. This honey is fine, and it's better than what I can find in the States, but it's just not as flavorful as what I brought back. :(
