Description
Every August, in the North Carolina Mountains, when those buzzing honeybees fly off to feed on the sweet nectar of those beautiful fleecy white flowers that hang low on the Sourwood Trees, beekeepers are ready and waiting to capture one of the most sought after monofloral honeys in the whole world, Sourwood Honey. It has a beautiful straw color, and a soft, buttery, caramel aftertaste. The texture is smooth, and the taste, delicious. The Sourwood Tree is found primarily in the Appalachian Mountains and, therefore, Sourwood Honey is known as The Mountain Honey. Sourwood Honey is our signature honey, and because of its high demand, we sell out of it every year.

Sourwood honey is THE BEST honey bar none. Smooth, sweet, and deliciously buttery. & this is a beautiful bottle that I leave out on my kitchen counter, which has garnered many compliments from friends. If you have never tasted Sourwood Honey, do yourself a favor and make the purchase. Your sweet tooth won’t let you regret it!

This honey was delicious! Also the bottle is very beautiful, I used it as a flower vase afterwards. My only complaint is the cork stopper broke after one use and I had to use a wine stopper as an emergency fix.

The best honey in the world. Worth every cent…

I used to prefer Tupelo Honey over Sourwood until I received a bottle of your Sourwood Honey for Christmas. Sourwood Honey is always good but yours was the absolute best honey I have ever tasted. When I’m not eating it by the spoonful, I like it best on blueberry pancakes.

On a trip to view fall foliage in Asheville, I stumbled upon ABC. Hesitant at first that honey could command a premium price for…honey, I was stunned when given a sample of of this local honey product. I bought a small jar and I regret not purchasing a larger. If I’m not enjoying it by the spoonfuls, I’m using it in my hot buttered rum toddy’s during the “frigid” Houston winters. It’s worth it’s weight in gold.
