Pure Tupelo honey is produced from the White Ogeechee Tupelo (nyssa ogeche), it ranges through the Ogeechee River, the Apalachicola, and the Chattahoochee River Basins of northwest Florida. These river valleys are the only place in the world where Tupelo Honey is produced commercially. Bee hives are placed along the river's edge. The bees fan out through the surrounding Tupelo blossom rich swamps during April and May and return with nectar to produce their liquid treasure.

Our Tupelo honey is, hands down, the Queen bee of all honey worldwide. It truly is the "gold standard" of honey. Harvested over two or three weeks in the early Spring, Tupelo nectar is one of the rarest and most valuable liquid resources in the world. After being concentrated by the workers, the nectar is transformed into a delicacy whose combination of strength, subtlety, and sweetness is almost impossible to describe. When you pour it from the elegant Flute into strong black tea, or onto a piece of crisp buttery toast, or over a piece of aged cheese, you know you're in for something special. Tupelo's flavors arrive as a series of distinct impressions, a parade of melon, creme brulee, butter, dried pear, and a hint of wet stones. Underneath it all is an unmistakable herbaceous note, the barest hint of Southern Moss. The finish is long, lasting more than a minute before fading away entirely. Click for more details
