De Traay Gangbare honing
De Traay's conventional varietal honey range: nine varieties, from buckwheat to lime.
De Traay Gangbare honing is the conventional, non-organic honey range of the Dutch honey company De Traay from Lelystad. De Traay states that these honeys, too, come from beekeepers who work with respect for bees and nature. The range has nine varieties: buckwheat, heather, clover, lime, orange and blossom, thyme and blossom, sunflower, acacia and blossom, and creamed blossom honey. They are sorted by taste and texture, as in the organic range. The country of origin is given for each variety: the lime honey, for example, is 100% Hungarian and comes in 350 g and 900 g jars. For crystallised honey, De Traay advises a hand-warm water bath.
Why this matters to you: you choose the variety by taste here, and the origin line on the jar shows the country of that particular honey.

What to read next
- Lime (linden) honey — Monofloral honey from lime (linden) nectar: light to medium in colour, with a fresh woody aroma and an astringent taste.
- 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.
- Buckwheat honey — Monofloral honey from common buckwheat nectar: the darkest of the honey types compared in a Polish study.
- Sunflower honey — Monofloral honey from sunflower nectar: bright yellow, crystallising quickly and often hard; the plant name adds no market value.
- Heather honey — Monofloral honey from ling heather (Calluna vulgaris) nectar: dark, strongly aromatic, slightly bitter and jelly-like in texture.
