Description
The Honey: Buckwheat Honey has a robust, full-bodied flavor and is dark amber in color. This honey is made by the gathered nectar from the small white flowers on the Buckwheat grain. Buckwheat Honey is higher in anti-oxidants than some other honeys and has been used for centuries to help soothe a sore throat or a cough. Buckwheat Honey is a great choice for baking bread and provides a wonderful contrast for your taste buds when drizzled on fresh fruit.
The Plants: Buckwheat Honey comes from the Buckwheat plant, which despite its name, is not actually related to wheat. When in bloom it appears as a small shrub with a white flower.
The Provenance (place): Pacific Northwest
