Ingredients

Pure, Raw, Minimally Filtered Sourwood Blossom Honey

Why Our Sourwood Honey Is So Special: True Sourwood Honey represents one of America's most prized honey varieties, often referred to as the "champagne of honeys." The sourwood trees are native to the eastern United States, particularly flourishing in North Georgia and the Appalachian Mountains. Their stunning white flowers, resembling small lilies, bloom for a brief period in late summer, providing honey bees with abundant nectar. The limited geographic range of sourwood trees, combined with their short blooming season, makes this honey exceptionally rare and sought-after.

The Sourwood Honey Difference: Unlike standard honey varieties, our Sourwood Honey stands apart with remarkable characteristics
- Flavor Profile: Experience a velvety sweetness with distinctive caramel-like tones, subtle hints of anise and spice that create a complex and sophisticated tasting experience
- Texture: Enjoy the exceptionally smooth, flowing consistency that rarely crystallizes, making it perfect for drizzling and savoring
- Color: Admire its unique peach-toned hue that distinguishes it visually from other premium honey varieties
- Natural Stability: One of the few honey varieties worldwide that exhibits slow crystallization, maintaining smooth consistency

Serving Suggestions: Elevate your culinary experiences with our premium Sourwood Honey
- Drizzle over warm biscuits, pancakes, or waffles for a delightful breakfast
- Incorporate into strawberry scones for a sophisticated baked treat
- Create honey-glazed squash for a sweet-savory side dish
- Prepare honey-glazed shrimp for an elegant main course
- Use as a natural sweetener in teas and cocktails for enhanced flavor
- Add to salad dressings and marinades for complexity and balance
- Enjoy by the spoonful for a pure taste of Appalachian excellence
