Frequently Asked Questions
What makes a honey a varietal honey?
Beekeepers generally use the term varietal when nectar from one floral source makes up much of the honey. Bees can visit other plants in the surrounding area, so varietal honey reflects where colonies forage during a particular bloom.
Where do sourwood trees grow?
Sourwood trees are native to the eastern United States and are especially associated with the Appalachian region. Their growing range and seasonal flowering period help limit where sourwood honey can be produced.
How should I store sourwood blossom honey?
Keep the jar tightly closed in a dry place at room temperature. A kitchen cabinet or pantry works well. Avoid introducing water into the container when serving the honey.
Can I substitute sourwood honey for another honey in a recipe?
In many recipes, you can swap one honey variety for another in the same amount. However, changing varieties may affect the final flavor, so consider how the honey will work with the other ingredients before making the substitution.
