What does «miel silvestre» mean in Spanish?
- Honey made by bees in the hollows of trees and rocks. Wild honey differs from commercial honey in that the bees usually use a greater variety of flowers, thus achieving a better body and lighter color. Some also attribute better flavor and greater properties to it. The famous stick honey is a type of wild honey that bees produce in small quantities and that is extracted from natural nests in hollow tree trunks.
- (La miel silvestre) Name of a short story by the Uruguayan author Horacio Quiroga (1879-1937) published in 1917 in the book "Cuentos de amor de locura y de muerte" (Tales of love, madness and death).
