Try this amazing award winning honey, you'll be glad you did!

Available in 3 flavors: 

Appalachian Sourwood: Appalachian sourwood honey is one of the most prized honeys in the world. Compared to our bold Appalachian Honey, the Sourwood has a remarkably delicate flavor profile, characterized by anise and spice. Sourwood honey’s flavor is so remarkable, it regularly wins the Apimonda world champion honey contests and is highly coveted by food connoisseurs throughout the world.

Tulip Poplar HoneyTulip Poplar honey is dark red in color and has the most robust flavor of any of our varietals. We love Tulip Poplar honey anywhere you want an intense honey flavor - such as in tea, or with a strong cheese.

Black LocustWinner of the Garden & Gun Made in the South Awards! Taste the honey that four-time James Beard winner Andrew Zimmern called "is the extra-special kind you’d happily slather on a biscuit."

Black Locust is one of the first nectar sources for bees foraging in our Appalachian forests. The nectar produces a floral, fruity and delicate honey. Beekeepers describe the flavor as very sweet, with hints of vanilla, and no aftertaste. They suggest pairing Black Locust honey with cheese to highlight the light flavor.
