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 />
