It all begins in the unspoilt nature of the Kolpa Valley ...

We are a family-run business based in Kostel, a part of Slovenia famous for its wild and unspoilt forests and its many water sources, among which the Kolpa River, the most beautiful river in the world, reigns supreme. In this beautiful nature we gather the ingredients for the most authentic and natural products in our assortment. This consists of several different top-quality products, including Lisac Organic SAMBUCUS elderflower syrup, Lisac Organic apple cider vinegar, Lisac Organic white wine vinegar, Lisac Organic elderflower vinegar, Lisac Organic honey vinegar and various types of locally produced honey. 

As it is well-known, Slovenia is also referred to as a green country, and Kostel is part of the wider Ribnica-Kočevje region, one of the most forested and clean landscapes in Slovenia. Here, forests cover 91% of the total area. Part of this is covered by primeval forests (Krokar, Kočevski rog), where one can feel the intensity of nature in its most pristine form. These rare remnants of prehistory are a special feature of the area, as they are the oldest primeval forests in Europe and, as such, have been the gene bank for all other mixed (fir, beech) forests in Europe. 

Kostel and the Kolpa valley are classified as a Destination of Excellence under the Nature 2000 programme. It is also known as the Land of Water, and as such is one of the cleanest areas of Slovenia, and thus of Europe. 

The best quality honey comes from here, as do our other products, which are made from carefully cultivated and harvested raw materials in this magical environment.
