Galtee Raw Ivy and Heather Honey
A blend of raw ivy and heather honey from the Irish apiary Galtee Honey Farm, coarse filtered, in a 230 g jar.
Galtee Raw Ivy and Heather Honey combines two late-season honeys from the Irish apiary Galtee Honey Farm: ivy and heather. For the ivy part, the farm's workers, a native Irish black bee according to Galtee, visit the flowers from September to November. The farm blends both honeys and gives them only a coarse filter, so that plenty of pollen and traces of propolis stay in the jar. Like the rest of the range, it is raw and Irish. The product photo shows a 230 g jar with an Ivy & Heather Honey label and a purple band.
Why this matters to you: with a coarse filter, specks of pollen and wax in this honey are intended by the producer, not foreign matter.
