Tennessee Mountain Sourwood Honey originates from a honey bee farm in Del Rio, Tennessee. Del Rio sits along the French Broad River in the Cherokee National Forest. The mountains are not conducive to industry or commercial farming or pesticide spraying making it the ideal location for beekeeping. The honey is not heated or ultra filtered keeping it in it’s true and natural form which reaps not only the maximum amount of nutritional benefits but preserves the true quality taste of the honey as well. This Sourwood Honey will become a pantry staple that you and your family will reach for day in and day out.
- ALL-NATURAL: Our local Tennessee Sourwood Honey with a honeycomb inside is completely raw and pure. Raw honey is only strained before it's bottled, which means it retains all of the beneficial nutrients and antioxidants that it naturally contains. To get the true array of benefits that honey offers it must be in it’s raw and natural form. Our honey is 100% pure which means we add nothing- it is raw and unpasteurized. The way honey truly is meant to be.
- USES: Ideal for savory dishes – fish, meat or poultry glazes and sauces. An interesting addition to bakery goods. Pairs beautifully with Cornish hen, salmon, charcuterie cheeses, fresh breads and fresh or dried fruits.
- HONEYCOMB: When the honeycomb remains sealed, raw honey is in its most nutritious form because it is straight from the source. This is something that liquid honey alone cannot provide. Honey that is taken from the honeycomb thus becomes exposed to air, which pulls water from the atmosphere. This leads to dilution in the honey that creates a slight but significant difference in the overall nutritional value.
- DELICIOUS: Sourwood Honey is characterized by it’s light amber color with peach tones. It has a light, buttery, and sweet flavor making it the ideal honey for everything from savory dishes to baked goods.
- ORIGIN: This honey hails from the Sourwood Tree in the Tennessee mountains, named by Appalachian Trail pioneers for it’s tart edible leaves. The trees only bloom for one month during the summer when the weather is just right and nectar quite literally drips from the blooms. This makes this particular honey all the more special and rare.
- NUTRITIOUS: Sourwood Honey is a particularly good choice to battle colds and sore throats because it tastes delicious when mixed into herbal tea or a spoonful straight from the jar. The pollen and propolis secreted by honeybees are what causes honey to slowly produce hydrogen peroxide in the body and provide impressive antioxidants and other benefits.
