De Traay Biologische honing

Honey range ✔ Checked: 11.2026 · sources: 2 Updated:

De Traay's organic range: nine varieties, from forest and chestnut to creamed blossom honey.

De Traay Biologische honing is the organic range of the Dutch honey company De Traay from Lelystad. It has nine varieties: forest, sunflower, thyme and blossom, sweet chestnut, phacelia, clover, creamed blossom, African and acacia honey. The producer sorts them by taste (mild, spicy, strong) and by texture (liquid, set, creamed). De Traay gives the country of origin for each variety: the phacelia honey, for example, is 100% Hungarian, from a cooperative of professional beekeepers in western Hungary. The label lists the ingredient as 100% honey of organic origin. If the honey crystallises, the producer suggests placing the jar in hand-warm water.

Why this matters to you: the country of origin is printed on each jar separately, so you know exactly where your organic honey comes from.

What to read next

  • Creamed honey — Honey set into a soft, finely crystallised mass that spreads and does not drip. It is not a separate type in EU law, just ordinary honey.
  • Chestnut honey — Monofloral honey from sweet chestnut nectar: dark, aromatic and distinctly bitter; by law its electrical conductivity must be at least 0.8 mS/cm.
  • Sunflower honey — Monofloral honey from sunflower nectar: bright yellow, crystallising quickly and often hard; the plant name adds no market value.
  • Forest honey — Forest honey (Waldhonig) is honey made mainly from honeydew collected in woodland, often mixed with nectar; darker and spicier than blossom honey.
