Have you ever opened different jars of honey and experienced a honey-tasting? Honeys can vary in taste and appearance, just as much as wines. The flavor and color of honey is derived from the nectar bees collect. Bees collect nectar from flowers grown in specific parts of the world--so honey tastes slightly different in every region. A few popular honeys in the U.S. are clover, tupelo
, orange blossom
, alfalfa, and buckwheat
...although there are many more varieties available. What the bees do with the nectar to produce honey is nothing short of a miracle...
