Gingerbread Spiced Honey by Edinburgh Honey Co. 400g

Gingerbread honey; Christmas on a spoon! This is what happens when you feed your bees gingerbread cookies. We have created this unique Christmas treat in collaboration with Spice Kitchen and it is mind-blowingly good.

You can use it in a hot toddy, evening tea or your baking. We have dedicated a rapeseed honey for this infusion and the results are both heartwarming and rich in Vitamin C.

Rapeseed Honey
Botanical name of plant: Brassica napus

Place of harvest: Poland

Sensory description:

• Colour: greyish to pale white when fully crystalized
• Aroma: floral delicate with a hint of a smell of fields in the spring.
• The intensity of smell: light
• Flavour: low. Toffee like almost fudgy. Due to the fact that this is churned honey, it has a texture similar to soft set caramel.
• Crystallization: Rape honey crystallizes very fast in less than 25°C.
• You can always de-crystalize your honey by submerging jar in hot yet not boiling water and let both cooldown. This way you are malting the honey but do not pasteurize it.
