Popis: The classification of Aydın-Karacasu-Dikmen honeys was practiced based on melissopalynological parameters. A total of 65 honey samples from Aydın-Karacasu-Dikmen village located in Aegean Region of Turkey were collected during the 2018-2019 harvesting season. According to the melissopalynological results, 54 samples were determined as nectar (blossom), seven as honeydew honey and four as mix of nectar and honeydew honey (blend honey). In all the honey samples Thymus spp. pollens were observed. Also sensory analysis were done for the investigated honey samples. As a result, owing to Thymus spp. pollen contents in all the samples the aroma and the odour of Thymus were detected by sensory analyses. The honey types of the region were determined according to the botanical sources exhibited by the research.
