RAW SUNFLOWER HONEY

sold out

The heady combination of wild rose bushes and tropical fruits next to vanilla pods, marshmallows and Turkish Delight made us all eager to take a sip. Thick and mouth-coating like rich golden set raw sunflower honey having that distinctive floral taste combined with pineapple and passion fruit. This was followed by sweet and sour marinated dried apricots.

Water added on the nose a rustic old-fashioned apple pie and barley candy, a favourite Victorian treat, while on the palate we experienced that fascinating bittersweet combination as in a cocktail using Campari, limoncello liqueur and orange juice for that little citrus freshness.
