1 LB MCCUTCHEONS BUCKWHEAT HONEY
Buckwheat honey is pungent in flavor with molasses and malty tones and a lingering aftertaste. Buckwheat honey is also very dark in color. As a general rule, darker honeys tend to be higher in antioxidant compounds than lighter ones. Because of this characteristic, darker honeys also tend to be higher in mineral content on average, as compared to lighter honeys. The buckwheat plant is an excellent honey source, sometimes planted by beekeepers specifically for honey production. The blossoms are rich in nectar and blooming can continue into the fall.
Buckwheat honey is one of the oldest sweeteners known to humans. Bees produce honey in a wide variety of flavors and colors, depending on the geographic location and the type of plant on which the bees have fed. A teaspoon of honey tastes sweeter and has more calories than a teaspoon of white sugar, because the liquid honey is more dense than dry sugar crystals.
