All about Honey

Industry

Honey, collected by bees from flower nectar, is the first natural sweetener known to man.

It is frequently mentioned in the Bible and depicted in cave paintings from prehistoric times. Early civilizations, like the Greeks and Romans, called honey, "the nectar of the gods".

Access to large areas of one kind of flower, such as clover, basswood, goldenrod, or buckwheat, they produce honey with a flavor and color typical of that particular plant or natural blends of honey from many different flowers. Honeys are also blended during packing

Honey flavors range from mild and bland to strong and pungent. The color ranges from black to white. Pigment (color) is intensified by the bees processing nectar; reducing the moisture level. Darker colored honey does not mean lesser quality; it means a different source of nectar.
