The research sought to determine the chromatic dominance of the corbicular pollen load and honey collected by Apis mellifera L., from the organoleptic and physical-chemical analysis. Honey and pollen samples were taken following the Good Beekeeping Practices. The acetolysis technique was carried out for the observations, measurements and identification at the family level of the pollen grains; the measurement was made with the help of optical microscopy at 1000x. Corbicular pollen samples were separated according to color characteristics in order to confirm that each group corresponds to the same taxon. Two groups of honeys were differentiated according to their geographical and botanical origin: from Zapatero, bifloral honey, 14 pollen types were recorded, with a predominance of Urticaceae and Moraceae taxa (87.83%) and from Banda de Shilcayo, multifloral honey, 14 pollen types were recorded, where Solanaceae stand out with 40.42% and Arecaceae with 10.33%. The honey from Banda de Shilcayo attributes an amber coloration, whose brown hue contains higher acidity (pH=3.375) and electrical conductivity (EC=0.673 µS/cm); Zapatero's honey is classified as having a white coloration, since it has a slightly light tone it contains less acidity (pH=4.276) and electrical conductivity (EC=0.582 µS/cm).
