Imagine the golden warmth of award-winning Acacia honey meeting the fiery kiss of Italian peperoncino. That's Luca Finocchio Miele Peperoncino — a handcrafted chili pepper honey from Tornareccio, Abruzzo, the honey capital of Italy.
Apicoltura Luca Finocchio is a family beekeeping operation with over 40 years of tradition, managing approximately 1,000 hives and 50 million bees. Their nomadic beekeeping technique — moving hives across Italy to follow specific blooms — produces some of the most distinctive unifloral honeys in the world, earning multiple Platinum and Gold medals at the London Honey Awards.
This Miele Peperoncino is part of their "Miervels" line, infusing their delicate Acacia honey with Italian hot red chili peppers (peperoncino) to create a condiment that balances floral sweetness with a lingering, satisfying heat.

Drizzle over pizza — especially pepperoni or margherita
