Sandt's Buckwheat Honey, Unfiltered Raw Honey, Non-GMO Genuine, Pure Honey (2 lbs)

Buckwheat plants grow best in cool, moist climates. The buckwheat plant prefers light and well-drained soils, although it can thrive in highly acid, low fertility soils as well. Buckwheat is usually planted in the spring or is found growing wild. It blooms quite early and it yields a dark brown honey of strong, distinct flavor.

Every bottle of Sandt’s honey is genuine, pure honey. Unlike the majority of honey sitting on store shelves today, we at Sandt’s do not alter our honey. Nor do we add extenders, additives or anything else. We simply provide exceptional “unfiltered raw honey – as the bees intended”.

What determines Honey's flavor?
The flower from which it comes determines the flavor, aroma, color and to some extent the body of a honey. For example, clover and alfalfa produce a mild, light colored honey; orange blossom is a fragrant, somewhat citrusy honey; buckwheat a dark, pungent honey. Honey also may take its name from a general grouping of flowers, such as wildflower, or from a particular geographical region.
