Wilelaiki Blossom

  • Packager:           The Big Island Bee Company, LLC  82-5780 Napoopoo Road #100, Captain Cook, HI 96704 (808) 328-1315.  www.bigislandbees.com
  • Nectar Origin:   Hawaii.
  • Color:                No color given.  My guess is Extra White to White.  
  • US Grade:         None.
  • Filtration:           Raw.
  • Price:                 About $19.00/pound.  
  • Flavor:               This honey comes from the Christmas berry tree and is described by the packager as "ambrosial and spicy."  To me, it has a distinctly toffee or caramel flavor.  I often find tropical honeys to be a bit exotic in their flavors, but not this one. There is also a bitter note at the end that reminds me of licorice.
