In the countryside of Campanet, Onofre Mir has been tending his beehives for decades with dedication that goes beyond business. Mel Es Raiguer is the result of this passion: a raw artisanal Mallorcan honey, born from respect for native bees and their surroundings. A product with a local quality seal, with the taste of the land and true craftsmanship.
The story of Mel Es Raiguer begins with a retired teacher’s desire to learn more about the world of bees. Onofre Mir, a local from Campanet, found his calling in beekeeping, and over time became a leading honey producer in Mallorca. Today, he has hives located on farms throughout Raiguer, where natural honey is produced with no additives, and always cold-pressed.
The diverse Mallorcan landscape is captured in his spring honey, light and mild, and his autumn honey, with a stronger flavour and hints of carob blossom. His artisanal method and affiliation with the ‘ÉsMel’ brand demonstrate his commitment to native bees and biodiversity.
The honey can be found at Sa Pobla and Llubí Markets, or directly on the farms. This small-scale production reflects quality and respect for the environment. For Onofre, looking after bee health means looking after the island’s health. And in every jar of Mel Es Raiguer, that message is very clear.
