Honey Brothers Forest Honey
Meadow-and-forest honey from Polissia in the Terroir Collection of the Ukrainian brand Honey Brothers.
Honey Brothers Forest Honey belongs to the Terroir Collection of the Ukrainian brand Honey Brothers (Medovi Braty). It is gathered in the forests and meadows of Polissia, in the Rivne and Zhytomyr regions of northern Ukraine. The brand calls its colour dark amber with a burgundy tint and its aroma woody, with notes of damp leaves and bark. Its tasters pick out smoked fruit, smoke and nutmeg, followed by a long spicy finish with a gentle bitterness that ends on overripe pear. The brand says that in 2016 it became the first in Ukraine to describe honey with a French method borrowed from wine tasting.
Why this matters to you: this is a dark Polissian honey with a smoky, woody character, for anyone who wants more from honey than sweetness.
