Sourwood Honey
Authentic raw sourwood honey is a delicate, smooth and delicious honey. The unique mono-floral raw sourwood honey has distinctive flavors of anise, spice, coves and maple and caramel taste. A smooth and syrupy texture, Sourwood Honey has a beautiful amber color which lends to a buttery sensation and aroma of cinnamon and cloves. For these reasons, the aftertaste has a slight gingerbread twang.

This rare sourwood honey originates from the Lily of the Valley (Sourwood) trees located in the North Georgia Appalachian mountains. Extracted from pristine hives, Sourwood Honey is famous for it’s rich and compelling flavor and aroma.
Sourwood honey is native to the USA and comes from the nectar of the Sourwood Tree. It’s known for its light amber appearance and ability to resist crystallization.

Raw Tupelo Honey
Raw tupelo honey is lighter in color, buttery in flavor with a mild and magical taste. With tones of cinnamon and hints of anise, this delicious honey comes from the tupelo gum tree blossoms. These blossoms are fragile, and favorable weather is necessary to produce a strong, plentiful crop. Our tupelo honey supply comes from the Wewahitchka area in the Florida panhandle and the Georgia Savannah river banks.
Tupelo Honey: A Taste Like No Other
Raw, unfiltered Tupelo honey has an amazing flavor profile. It has a bright, fruity-floral burst that dissolves on the tongue, with a warm buttery finish. Tupelo honey has a lower glycemic index than most honeys and has a high resistance to crystallization. The lower glycemic index makes it easier to process and digest than most honeys.
Tupelo Honey Pairings
Tupelo honey pairs very well with strong cheeses, chicken, salmon, fresh fruit, vegetables, teas, coffee, pastries and breads.
