The first packages I bought about 45 years ago were 5 Caucasians and 5 
Italians. The Caucasians were delightful bees to work with. You had to 
really work at it to get them upset enough to sting you. I believe that the 
hybrids of Caucasians and Italians are rather bad tempered.

If they were available, I would be happy to buy a few Caucasian queens to 
try for the urban beekeeping that is still going strong here.

Best Regards
