Honey is the fragrant, thick, syrupy creation of honeybees (Apis mellifera) that can be flavored by the type of bloom growing most profusely where the bees gather their nectar. Consumers can find honeys flavored with the blossoms of wildflowers, sage, thyme, rosemary, lavender, heather, apple, orange, clover, grapefruit, tupelo, buckwheat, and alfalfa. Buckwheat honey is one of the darkest, in both color and flavor; grapefruit is one of the lightest. Artisanal honeys are available in limited quantities. Blueberry and cranberry are popular in the Northeast. Sage and mesquite rule in the West, while eucalyptus and manzanita are prized in California.
