Honey House<br />

Near the rustic village of Lekit, Gakh<br />

region, this is a bee farm spanning 15<br />

hectares. The family business keeps 300<br />

colonies of bees and produces a wide<br />

range of honey-based products. As part<br />

of its mission to educate future generations<br />

of beekeepers, it also stages a<br />

range of apicultural workshops and has<br />

even organised a small open-air museum<br />

demonstrating ancient methods of<br />

beekeeping. In particular you’ll learn<br />

about an endangered local wild beekeeping<br />

tradition known as Tekne, which<br />

uses a hollow wooden log to produce<br />

Caucasian mountain honey, and you can<br />

try the dark honey that results from it.<br />
