Tupelo Honey

(9 customer reviews)

$7.50 – $32.00

Tupelo Honey is not only famous for its rarity, if anything the real fame comes from the taste. Tupelo has been considered the “gold standard of honey.” The taste is buttery, the texture is smooth, and flavor hits on the back on the tongue producing one of the most unique honeys in the world. Tupelo has a high fructose sugar ratio, making it one of the few honeys in the world that never crystallize. So the sweetness is light, and the taste is delicious. It is a perfect compliment to a biscuit, tea, or just about anything that could use a little extra something sweet.

Description

 

This raw unfiltered honey comes from the white tupelo trees that thrive in the many rivers, lakes and wetlands of Gulf County, Florida.  Our tupelo honey hails from the small town of Wewahitchka, which is the center of tupelo honey production in the USA. “Wewahitchka” is a Seminole name that means “water eyes” — a reference to the many lakes in the area. The Apalachicola and Chipola river basins, which run from North to South in Gulf County, contain some of the highest concentrations of tupelo trees in the world.

    This stuff is the bomb! A sweet and buttery taste. I would not waste it in tea. It is meant to be enjoyed slathered over a scone or warm biscuits. Yes, it’s expensive but worth it. We brought 2 jars back home to Cleveland from Asheville and we’ll definitely buy more when they’re gone.

    The most unique and wonderful honey I’ve ever tasted. I usually use honey to sweeten my tea or to put on toast but I lick the Tupelo honey directly from the spoon because I don’t want anything to adulterate its delicious taste, yeah it is that good

    I never cared for honey until I had Tupelo honey. It’s true, you can’t use it in tea or for baking purposes. Use it on toast, on pancakes, or just straight from the spoon. This honey is too delicious to let it’s flavor play second fiddle to anything else. It has to be the stand out player.

    Hands down, best honey ever!!! Re-ordering and can’t wait to actually get back into the shop next weekend!

    I first heard of tupelo honey in a line in a Van Morrison song, “She’s as sweet as tupelo honey.” I wondered what made tupelo honey so special and years later I got a chance to find out. The flavor and sweetness were truly otherworldly–in an amazingly good way. All honey is good and it’s difficult to pick a “best” but tupelo just might be.

  8. Laura –

    Seriously the best honey! 10/10 recommend!

    This Tupelo honey has SPOILED ME for all other honeys! The flavor is indescribable and the most luscious honey I’ve ever tasted. I drizzle this honey over my hot fried chicken. Oh my…. I’m getting dizzy…….
