Cactus Blossom

About this Honey

Harvested in the deserts of Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas during the spring bloom of Saguaro, Prickly Pear, and Cholla cacti. This honey is surprisingly light in color, often semi-transparent. It possesses a mild, sweet flavor with subtle floral notes and a unique viscosity. It is a rare regional treat that captures the fleeting beauty of the desert bloom.
