ABOUT US

NATURAL HONEY PRODUCERS

We produce honey, pollen, propolis and wax. We monitor the whole process of production to bring the best products straight from the beehive to your table.

The vegetation of the Southwest of Asturias, where our beehives are located, brings a great variety of flavours and aromas to our honey.

Our honey is obtained in a completely natural way, with the purpose of not losing any of the honey’s natural properties and so offer a unique product to the consumer.

OUR BEGINNINGS

In 1941, when Alfonso Pérez was just a child, he attended a beekeeping course with his brothers. This beekeeping course was given by the parish priest Carlos Flórez Lorenzo, known in the area as “the beekeeping priest”, he was the person that awoke Alfonso’s interest in beekeeping.

At that time, Mr. José Perez, Alfonso’s father, asked a client to give him one of his beehives, as a way of paying off an old debt. Mr. Pérez decided to give this beehive to his son, so as he could continue to practise and develop his beekeeping interest.

Beekeeping was carried out, as with all activities in a rural setting, within the family unit.

Thus, Alfonso gradually passed on his passion for beekeeping to his sons Gustavo and Luis, both of whom, following in his footsteps, established LAPUELA Honey.

THE FIRST HONEY-PACKING PLANT IN THE REGION

In 1983, the Institute for Apiculture Research and Development was founded in Asturias. In this institute beekeeping activity was publicised and beekeepers are trained in the modern exploitation of beehives. Asturias is divided into eleven regions, with many technicians in charge. Back then, Alfonso became the main collaborator of the beekeeping technician in the Pola de Allande area. He thereby contributed to the introduction of Lanstrong type beehives in this part of Asturias and the old “truébanos” (an old type of beehive made of wood) became obsolete.

Around that time, Alfonso set up the first honey-packing plant in the region, and succeeded in transmitting his beekeeping knowledge and vocation to his children. For many reasons, the Pérez family abandoned the commercial exploitation of their beehives for a few years, although they never gave up beekeeping as a hobby.

Finally, in 2006, Gustavo, Alfonso’s youngest son, decided to take over from his father and set up as a professional beekeeper.
