Floral Source & Origin
Despite the name, coffee beans are actually the seeds of coffee cherries, a type of fruit. And fruit starts with a flower blossom. To maximize fruit production (and thus get more seeds/beans), farmers place beehives around their plantations when the coffee plants begin to bloom in mid to late Spring. Our current supply of coffee blossom honey comes from a small coffee planation in Guatemala.
Flavor Profile
Coffee blossom honey is darker in color, and does not taste much like coffee. It has a caramel flavor with earthy notes. One customer said it was the most complex honey that he ever had the pleasure of tasting.
