Yamada Bee Farm Bulgarian Honeydew Honey
Bulgarian honeydew honey from Yamada Bee Farm, in 200 g and 100 g glass jars.
Honeydew honey from Bulgaria (甘露蜂蜜(ブルガリア産), kanro) is the dark honey in Yamada Bee Farm's rare honey range. The producer explains that in Europe it is called forest honey: insects take up the sap of trees such as oak, pine, fir and spruce, and the sugary droplets they leave on leaves and trunks are gathered by bees and made into honey. The catalogue describes the taste as rich and deep. It is sold in 200 g and 100 g glass jars labelled Honeydew Honey. Harvests depend on weather and flowering, so it may be out of stock at times. The ingredient line reads honey (Bulgaria).
Why this matters to you: it is a dark honey from trees rather than flowers, for when you want something unlike acacia or linden.
