I enjoy whatever my bees happen to be producing at the time. smile



Me too.

That said I pulled of some Big Leaf Maple this year and it is sublime.

I get it from local farms that have bees. Much better and cheaper than what you can get in a store.

Mine neither. Too cold and rainy on the AKPEN this so-called "summer". Last couple of years every open area was pinkish purple.

I'll be retiring in the next few months and moving north . I hope to be contributing to the supply in a couple years at the hobby level.

I want to try making mead with it.

What is another honey that is close to being as dark and strong as buckwheat?

Thanks!

I really like dark honey, but all the stuff local here is lighter. Not that ANY honey is bad mind you, but I do like that dark strong flavor of buckwheat.

Try the stuff that comes off the orange groves in Florida. Almost like molasses.

I favor cotton honey. Hard to get now that they most plant varieties with no nectaries.

The Goldenrod honey is dark, stronger tasting, and has a bit of a "bite" to it going down.

Sourwood is easily the best honey I have ever had. Tupelo a distant second.
