DIP INTO A DANGEROUSLY DELICIOUS HONEY! This decorative honeycomb bottle filled with our award winning Sourwood Honey is paired with a nicely-weighted glass honey dipper to complete a perfectly memorable gift. Like all honey, sourwood is seasonal and quickly sells out. This year's 2024 sourwood harvest is nothing short of spectacular; what a wine sommelier would call a Grand Cru. Make someone’s holiday delightfully sweet with one-of-a-kind Killer Bees Honey.
Harvest Notes
This 2024 sourwood honey is our Queen’s Reserve; the purest sourwood honey that the hive girls produce only every few years. It is unlike any other honey our Hive Girls create in our Smoky Mountain apiary. The bouquet is layered with saffron, baking spices, almonds and poached fruits. The palate begins with a soft, buttery and caramel flavor which leads to a richly floral, weighty middle. Not overtly complex, but gently nuanced with a hint of fennel or anise on the finish. This sourwood honey is one of the most elegant honey available. It is simply exquisite.
We never purchase honey from other beekeepers. We control and manage the process of honey production from hive to bottle to your table. Never heated, ultra-filtered, blended, flavored or infused. Gravity-filtered to keep in all of the goodness the bees intended. Our honey is tested by independent labs to ensure it is 100% toxin-free and to ensure no adulteration or agro-toxins (pesticides, herbicides, or antibiotics). Our honey is glyphosate free per QSI Labs! Toxicology report, here. See all of our lab results on our Honey page.
