About this Honey
True Fig honey is rare, as figs are effectively inverted flowers pollinated by wasps. However, bees often forage on the sugary juices of ripe, open figs or the nectar of related Figwort plants. The resulting honey is dark, rich, and exceptionally fruity, often with fermented or molasses-like notes similar to the fruit itself.
