About Our Honey!
Did you know that honey comes in many different colors, flavors and varieties?
Orange Blossom Honey comes from the fragrant blossoms of the orange tree and is very sweet, with a hint of citrus aroma and flavor. Lighter colored honey tends to be mild; however, our NYC hives collect nectar from the many fragrantly sweet flowering street trees; producing a light, but very sweet, sharp and robust flavor.
Buckwheat Honey is dark, thick and has a malty molasses taste…you either love it or you hate it. Although it is not as sweet as other varieties, it is rich in antioxidants and vitamins.
Regardless of which delicious flavor of our honey you chose, it may crystallize. This is because it is so pure. Since we do not heat or filter our honey, this is a totally natural process. To get your honey back to a smooth consistency, gently warm the jar in a pot of hot (not boiling as this will damage all the good stuff in the honey) water and stir. However, crystalized honey is no different then when in its liquid form except for color and texture (some even say it tastes a little richer). Many people prefer honey this way as it is less messy and easier to put in tea or spread on toast.
