The Abeilles de Malescot 2026 honey Advent calendar offers twenty-four gourmet treats, one per day, from 1 to 24 December. Behind each window, an individual stick contains a recipe made with French honey: the year’s new creations, some of the house’s most indulgent blends and the estate’s bestsellers.

The principle pleasantly departs from chocolate calendars. Each morning, a new flavour is spread on toast, stirred into yoghurt or dissolved in a cup of hot tea; some pairings stay faithful to the classics, others boldly shake them up, depending on the producer. The ready-to-use stick lets you taste without opening a jar and compare the textures from one day to the next.

The family farm at Bouglon, in Lot-et-Garonne, is run by siblings who made beekeeping their trade after the farm converted to organic agriculture. For a tea lover, this calendar becomes a true tasting game: each honey can be enjoyed with a Christmas tea, a spiced rooibos or a green tea, to discover over the days which pairings work. An original December gift, to give from the end of November.
