Andrea Bianco represents the fourth generation of a family of apiarists. Before moving to the honey sector, his father was a winegrower and it was probably this experience that gave him the idea of adopting the single variety concept and, in pursuit of top quality, producing only monofloral honeys: hence the Mieli d’autore line, a guarantee of quality. Andrea practices nomadism, moving the bees in search of the best flowering areas. He produces diverse typologies of honey: chestnut, acacia, wild lime, rhododendron and mountain dandelion. His Rododendro Gran Paradiso 2021 won the Platinum medal at the London Quality Honey Awards.  His range includes other interesting products such as Mielò, a liqueur made with grappa and honey, honey with saffron grown by a small locale farmer, Honey Diamonds, dark chocolate pralines filled with soft citrus honey cream and Mielò, propolis in alcohol solution, pollen and royal jelly.
