Struan Scottish Heather Honey

Struan Heather Honey is great for spooning on your toast, drizzling on yogurt or eating straight from the jar. Rich and thick, it tastes divine, has amazing culinary value and is also a superfood containing essential nutrients.  The late, great food critic Mimi Sheraton said Struan Apiaries' honey is one of the "1,000 foods to eat before you die". The peculiar combination of conditions found in the Scottish Highlands make it an exceptional environment for Struan bees to create what are regarded as the finest honeys in the world. Scotland is particularly renowned for its coveted thick, aromatic caramel-colored heather honey, created from the nectar in the purple bell-like flowers which carpet the beautiful and unpolluted Highland moors in late summer. Come the springtime the bees get busy collecting nectar from the wild flowers that bloom across the glens and hillsides and the soft fruit trees in the area to turn it into sweet poly-floral honey with a unique complex flavor. Struan helps the bees along by positioning their hives in small groups in pristine, unspoiled countryside locations where they have access to the heather and wild flowers they need to source the nectar for their honey, with the added benefit of pollinating the plants as they go. 454 gram jars Made in Scotland
