- Honey Facts & Benefits: Heather honey is prized for its health benefits, being rich in essential vitamins, nutrients, antioxidants, and enzymes that enhance the body’s defenses, support bone health, and aid digestion.

Additionally, heather flower honey can stimulate the appetite, calm the nervous system, and strengthen the cardiovascular system.

- Storage: The longer you store it, the more likely it is to crystallize; however, crystallized honeycomb remains edible. Fact: Heather honey naturally has a higher water content than all other types of honey, and this moisture makes all honey susceptible to fermentation. With Heather honey, the risk of fermentation is even greater — a fact of honey life! Even at room temperature, honey can ferment.

The wild berries are tart and bitter with an astringent taste, but cultivated rowan trees' berries are usually sweeter. These soft berries, placed in raw honey, provide an amazing taste experience with a beautiful blend of sweet and slightly spicy flavors.
- Adding fresh berries to the honey raises the typical humidity level of honey, affecting the texture and storage options of the product. However, thanks to the advanced technology we use, the humidity level of our honey and berries mix stays 17-18 %, keeping it safe from spoilage and allowing the storage of the product at room temperature. This production method also preserves the natural texture and full nutritional value of our raw honey.

It is a perfect topping for your cereal, toast, porridge, or breakfast snacks. Honey with Rowan Berries is also excellent with waffles, pancakes or baked goods, desserts, or fruit.

Notes & Tips:
- Crystallization: raw honey crystallizes over time, and it is a natural process, it don't impact the taste or the quality. Honey thickens and changes its state - it hardens and becomes grainy. Different types of honey crystallize differently. Some types of honey become very grainy and form larger crystals. Changes in color and structure (crystallization) are signs of raw, unpasteurized, and unprocessed honey.
- Colour changes: please know that raw honey can vary in colour and taste from batch to batch - honey changes with the season and climate and depending on what the bees feed on.
- Safety Information: honey is inappropriate for children under the age of one year.
- Product photos and videos are representative. Honey colour and texture may vary depending on the season and level of crystallisation.
