NY Raw Buckwheat Honey

$16.00

Raw Buckwheat honey is a dark, rich honey made from the nectar of buckwheat flowers. It is known for its strong, robust flavor with earthy and malty undertones, often described as raisin or molasses-like. This type of honey is less sweet than traditional honey varieties and has a distinctive, slightly astringent taste. Buckwheat honey is highly nutritious, containing more antioxidants than lighter honey types.  Due to its thick viscosity to coat the throat, and high nutrient content and antibacterial properties, it is a natural remedy for coughs and sore throats. .

It is often used in baking and cooking due to its dark color and intense flavor, making it a unique addition to culinary dishes by providing depth and complexity. 

Pair this "raisin-like" flavor with parmesan and pecorino cheeses for a bold complementary taste.

A unique sweetness to Assam (strong black tea), Lapsang Souchong (smoky black tea) and even Yerba Mate.

Pure, raw honey never goes bad. If it crystallizes, warm the jar gently in hot water. Shake occasionally to accelerate liquification.
