The Bee Keepers source their Beechwood Honey Dew honey from the black beech forests that stretch along the Southern Alps of the South Island, New Zealand. Honey Dew is amber in colour and has a full-bodied and silky smooth taste with a distinct and intense aroma of the woods. It has a malty and earthy flavour.
Beechwood Honey Dew Honey, also known as Honey Dew, is a lovely runny honey which never crystallises or goes hard. This is our most popular honey.
Serving Suggestion: Honey Dew honey pairs perfectly with cheeses and is an ideal drizzle for salads, desserts and Greek yoghurts. Use as a sugar replacement in baking and it is delicioius as a sweetener in drinks.
