Includes 3 oz honey samples of Acacia Honey, Orange Blossom Honey, and Lavender Honey.
Acacia Honey
Acacia Honey is perfection on the palate and is made from the delicate nectar of Robinia pseudoacacia, known as Acacia in Europe. The trees are plentiful from Northern Italy to the Ukraine, and the honey that the bees make from its blossoms is a staple in this region.
Acacia (pronounced uh-KAY-shuh) is highly sought after in the United States. The natural sugar profile of Acacia Honey resists crystallization. It is known for its beautiful light golden color and incredible clarity and is the lightest tasting honey in the world. One spoonful of this fine honey, and you will be an Acacia lover forever!
Orange Blossom Honey
Orange Blossom Honey is floral, fruity, and incredibly aromatic. It can add dimension to many foods, drinks, and sauces, and is particularly good for baking.
This fragrant, light amber honey comes from sunny Central Florida, an area of the US famous for its abundance of orange groves. Beekeepers from around the nation bring their hives here in March and April so the hardworking honeybees can pollinate the blossoming trees, which allows us the pleasure of having oranges to eat.
The bees also collect the fragrant nectar from the orange blossoms and turn it into a delicious, candy-sweet honey. As soon as the trees lose their blossoms, these skilled beekeepers extract the Orange Blossom Honey, making sure to keep it separate from the other spring honey.
Orange Blossom Honey is our earliest harvest of the season and a sure sign that summer is on the way. It's like sunshine in a jar!
Lavender Honey
Many beekeepers believe lavender to be among the honeybee's favorite flowering species because of the relatively large amount of nectar it produces and the hardy nature of the plant.
Savannah Bee Company Lavender Honey is made from the nectar of Lavandula stoechas luisieri, which grows wild on the border between Spain and Portugal and blankets the mountainsides in purple flowers during the month of May.
Lavender honey is a sought after varietal popular around the world. Most companies sell a French varietal of lavender honey, while others only sell lavender-infused honey. SBC is neither. And that is what makes it an incredible find. We hope you enjoy it.
