About this Honey

Produced in the cool, moist climates of the Northern U.S. (like New York and Ohio) and Canada. Harvested late in the season, this honey is dark purple to black. It is valued for its high antioxidant content, often exceeding that of lighter honeys. The flavor is pungent, earthy, and malty, comparable to molasses, and is widely used as a natural cough suppressant.
