About this Honey

This is an artisanal style rather than a floral variety. Raw honey (typically a mild wildflower or clover base) is aged in charred oak barrels previously used to age spirits like bourbon, whiskey, rum, or brandy. Over several months, the honey absorbs the smoky, vanilla, and woody essences from the oak and the subtle kick of the spirit, creating a sophisticated, non-alcoholic gourmet syrup.
