Langnese
Also known as: Langnese Honig
Langnese is a German honey brand from Bargteheide in northern Germany.
Langnese is a German honey brand from Bargteheide in northern Germany. It goes back to 1927, when importer Karl Rolf Seyferth took over the Hamburg firm V.E.H. Langnese and began selling honey under that name. The hexagonal jar that recalls a honeycomb dates from the 1930s; the honey has been bottled in Bargteheide since 1965, and the brand is sold in more than 50 countries.
The range covers honey in the hexagonal glass (6eck-Glas), in the upside-down Flotte Biene dispenser, organic and Fairtrade lines, portion packs and catering sizes. Varieties include summer blossom, rapeseed, acacia, lime, sunflower, wild lavender and mānuka honey. The honey comes from Europe, North and Central America, South America and New Zealand.
Why this matters to you: Langnese packs honey from several continents, so the country of harvest on the label is what tells you where a given jar comes from.
