Seasons Captured in a Bottle

Honey is shaped by the nectar honeybees have access to. These varietals follow the bloom cycles of the Blue Ridge Mountains in Southern Appalachian woods, in one of the most biologically diverse forests in the world! Each harvest has its own character—from pale spring florals to dark late-season honey. Each jar reflects weather patterns and even drought or flooding, heat and cold snaps. Side by side you can see each season's nectar in a jar.

SPRING RESERVE: BLACK LOCUST, APPLE, AND CHERRY BLOSSOM

Spring Reserve is drawn from the first forest-edge blossoms of the season, led by black locust and complemented by apple and cherry bloom nectar. It captures Appalachian spring in a honey that is delicate, bright, and quietly expressive.

It's pale gold with a fluid texture and clean aromatic lift. Black locust contributes notes often described as vanilla, citrus, and light tropical fruit, and its naturally high fructose content helps the honey remain silky and slow to crystallize.

Apple and cherry blossom nectar add a gentle orchard-flower softness. The finish is bright, graceful, and lightly floral, making this an elegant choice for those who favor lighter-bodied honeys.

WILDFLOWER HONEY

Wildflower Honey is gathered from a succession of blooms across one of the most botanically diverse forest regions in the world. Rather than reflecting a single dominant bloom, it offers a broader expression of Appalachian woodland forage through the season.

Its profile is round and generous, with notes of butter and caramel lifted by soft floral warmth. Seasonal variation is part of its appeal, but it remains harmonious, aromatic, and rooted in mountain forest forage.

SOURWOOD HONEY (APPALACHIAN GOLD)

Sourwood Honey begins with nectar from the sourwood tree, native to the Southern Appalachian forest and prized for its fragrant white summer blossoms. Because the bloom is regional and brief, this honey is prized worldwide and considered one of the most distinctive American forest varietals.

It's light amber gold with a smooth, satiny texture. Its flavor is layered, with gentle caramel richness and notes often described as maple, warm spice, anise, or gingerbread. The finish lingers softly, and it tends to crystallize slowly.

KNOTWEED HONEY

Japanese knotweed is an invasive plant now established along many mountain waterways in the region. Its late bloom provides an abundant nectar source at the close of the season, producing a honey of unusual depth and character.

Knotweed Honey is gathered when much of the surrounding forage has faded, which gives it a darker color, fuller body, and concentrated autumnal depth.

On the palate, it is deep and resonant, with notes of dried fig, and brûléed sugar, supported by aromas of baked fruit and toasted nuts. Like many darker honeys, it suggests a fuller mineral presence and a long, rich finish.

Across every variety, our honey is sustainably harvested from organically managed bees. It's always raw and unfiltered, preserving the enzymes, pollen, texture, and varietal nuance of these gorgeous mountains in each jar.
