Description

About: Our Mountain Tree Liquor Honey is produced from honeydews collected from forest trees including fir, oak and beech, at times of the year and in locations where nectar from flowers is not available. Known locally as ‘manna ’, it has a strong, dark muscovado sugar taste and aroma with spicy overtones. Honeydew originates from the sugar-rich sap that feeds the tree. It is made in the leaves using mineral-rich water brought up from the roots combined with oxygen and energy from the sun, and incorporates a range of nutrients not found in flower nectar.

Pairing: Allows the most extravagant uses. The honey of starred chefs!

Benefits

Pure honey is naturally high in antioxidants derived from nectar. Typically, 82% sugars (glucose and fructose), 18% ‘B’ vitamins and minerals. Raw honey is unheated during processing to avoid damaging these delicate, nutritious compounds which support a healthy immune system.

Storage

Honey is ideally stored at room temperature (around 18-22 Celsius) and need not be refrigerated to preserve it in top condition for up to two years. Exposing honey to temperatures above 35 C (hive temperature) from the sun or other heat sources can damage vitamin content and flavour, so please store out of direct sunlight and away from radiators. All natural honey will begin slowly to crystallise after a period of time dependent on its aromatic content. It can be used semi-set in the same way as when clear, but if you wish to return its clarity, place in a warm cupboard at 30-35 C and over a few days it will clarify.
