Orange Blossom Honey

Floral Source & Origin

In early May, when the weather turns warmer, orange trees come into bloom. These blossoms have a wonderful perfume which calls out to nearby honey bees. The beehives were placed in the groves a few weeks earlier to pollinate the citrus crop. We use the name "orange blossom honey" to emphasize that the honey comes from the nectar of these blossoms. It is not orange flavored honey.

As you would expect, orange blossom honey is deliciously fruity. It is very sweet - one of the sweetest honey varieties that we offer. There is a hint of citrus flavor as the honey dissolves on your tongue.
