Coming to the sugar shed - dark honey ! Every year varies with how dark the fall harvest is depending on what’s in bloom and how much wasn’t capped the with first harvest. Some years is almost black, whereas this year is much lighter. it’s still yummy !! 😋
What’s the difference?
Lighter honey comes from clover and any flower/weed in bloom in the spring & early summer.
Dark honey we found comes mostly from Japanese knotweed and goldenrod along with other plants blooming.
As far a taste - they both have that typical honey flavor and you would never know the difference trying each one alone. When you side by side compare , now that’s the real test. Light honey has more of a lemon flavor and then dark honey is a little more robust with a molasses flavor.
Thanks for all your support !
Anyone interested in some Hot Honey ?? We can make it happen!
