About this Honey

Produced in the pine flatwoods of South Georgia and North Florida from a small evergreen holly bush. Harvested in late spring, this honey is prized for its high enzyme content, which prevents crystallization. It has a thick viscosity and a rich, complex flavor that is often preferred by bakers for its ability to retain moisture in cakes and breads.
