- Honey from eastern Slovakia has been given protected status by the EU.
- The European Commission approved the designation of honey produced in Bardejov, known as “Bardejovský med” or “Med z Bardejova”, as a protected designation of origin (PDO) product on September 30.
- The specificity of Bardejov Honey lies mainly in the fact that both lime-tree honeydew and honeydew honey also contain fir-tree honeydew.
