Beekeeping Expertise in Marratxí: S'Avenc Mel
Halfway between Santa Maria and Pòrtol is S'Avenc Mel, a farm with a long history where José Matas, a beekeeper since 1996, produces high quality organic honey and other products such as pollen, propolis, royal jelly and homemade spreads. A place where tradition, science and Mallorcan cuisine come together.
José Matas is no ordinary beekeeper. At S'Avenc Mel, you can breathe knowledge, peace and commitment. Since 1996, he’s been producing honey and natural by-products using a range of techniques, from ancient methods to the artificial insemination of bees—a pioneering technique in Spain to improve the genetics of queen bees.
These bees make thousands of flights to create a food used for therapeutic purposes, loaded with antioxidants and pure energy. Honey, pollen, royal jelly and propolis are produced here with quality that has crossed borders: Switzerland, Sweden and Denmark are familiar with its flavour.
But S'Avenc is more than just honey. It’s also pa amb oli under the canopy, coffee, olives and local olive oil. A place to pause and connect with the land, guided by a fascinating person: a beekeeper who speaks passionately about history, science and bees. A sensory experience in the countryside that combines Mediterranean tradition, conversation and local produce.
