Almond Blossom

About this Honey

Harvested in California during the massive almond pollination event in February. This honey is widely misunderstood—pure almond honey contains amygdalin and can be bitter. However, the honey harvested is often a mix of almond and early wild mustard. It is dark, nutty, and strong-flavored, primarily used by commercial bakeries rather than sold as a table varietal.
