Honey is a food, usually found in a viscous, sugary liquid state, which is produced by bees from nectar collected from flowers and processed by their digestive enzymes, and stored in honeycombs in their hives to serve as food.
Honey has always been used as food by man, initially obtained in an extractive way and often in a way that damaged the hives. Over the centuries, man learned to capture swarms and install them in “artificial hives”. By developing and improving management techniques, he was able to increase honey production and extract it without damaging the hive. With the “domestication” of bees for the production of honey, we have the beginnings of beekeeping.
