The Colour Question
Pale honey is not weak honey
People often assume darker honey means better or purer honey. It does not. Colour comes from the flower the bees worked, nothing else. Acacia blossom yields one of the palest honeys in the world, nearly water-clear when fresh, and that is exactly what it should look like.
What follows from that pale colour is a mild, clean, gently floral taste. It sweetens without announcing itself, which is why it suits tea, coffee, dressings and anything where a strong forest honey would take the dish over.
Worth Knowing
Why this one stays liquid longer
"Crystallisation is about sugar composition, not about purity."
A jar of honey turning grainy worries a lot of people, who assume sugar has been added. The opposite is closer to the truth — crystallising is what natural honey does, and heavily processed honey often stays clear precisely because it has been treated to.
Acacia happens to be naturally slow to crystallise because of the balance of sugars in it, so this jar stays runny longer than most. If it does eventually set, stand the jar in warm water and it loosens.

Using It
Warm, not boiling
Let hot drinks cool a moment first. Boiling liquid flattens the delicate floral notes you paid for.
Use it where honey should not dominate — tea, coffee, salad dressings, yoghurt, or in place of sugar in baking.
If it sets, warm the jar in a bowl of warm water. Never microwave honey.
Always a dry spoon. Water in the jar is the one thing that will ferment honey.

Mild, fruity or strong?
Tell us how you use honey day to day and we will tell you which of our three actually suits you.
Because of the flower. Acacia blossom produces one of the palest honeys there is. Colour in honey comes from the nectar source, not from quality — pale acacia and dark forest honey are simply different.
Does it crystallise?
More slowly than most honeys because of its sugar composition, so it stays runny longer. If it does set, standing the jar in warm water loosens it again.
What does raw and unprocessed mean?
That it has not been heated hard or filtered through fine industrial filters. Heavy processing gives a uniform, permanently clear product but removes natural particles and much of the aroma.
Can I add it to hot tea?
Let the drink cool slightly first. Very hot liquid dulls the delicate floral notes that make a single-origin honey worth buying.
Can babies have honey?
No. Honey of any kind should not be given to infants under one year old. This is standard guidance worldwide and applies to raw honey particularly.
