Natural, Raw and Unfiltered Honey from Local Hive

For this holiday gift guide feature we received 2 bottles of Raw & Unfiltered Honey from Local Hive. My mother and I both enjoy honey, so we we were excited to give them a try.

* Local Hive New England Honey
Floral Notes: Basswood, Berries, Clover, Goldenrod. Flavor is bold and robust. Northeast honeys are much darker than anywhere else.

* Local Hive Northeast Honey
Floral Notes: Alfalfa, Berries, Clover, Goldenrod. Flavor flows from sweet, to floral with a finish that’s slightly bitter (in a good way!).

On the back of each bottle is a United States map which highlights the particular states that your selected honey comes from. I think it’s really cool that you can buy honey from your particular area in the country. Plus, a portion of the proceeds goes toward promoting, protecting and prolonging pollination. Each bottle contains only one ingredient: Raw & Unfiltered Honey!

Natural, Raw and Unfiltered Honey from Local Hive

Mom and I enjoy putting a teaspoon of honey into our hot tea or coffee in the morning. I really appreciate that the honey comes packaged in plastic, squeezeable bottles. Really easy to use! We also enjoy putting honey into our pancake batter, waffle batter, cookie & bread batters, etc. Cooking and baking with honey is a great way to sweeten up your baked goods…naturally. Plus, the added honey gives everything a nice flavor.

Both of the flavors that we received for this review are fantastic! We really couldn’t choose a favorite as they were equally delicious and slightly unique in their own way. If you’re a pure & unfiltered honey lover, you’re really going to enjoy the honeys offered by Local Hive.

The holidays are coming and I think they would make a great holiday gift. You could buy some herbal tea, a tea cup and one of the honey’s to give as a gift. If you plan on doing any holiday baking…pick up some of this honey to add to your favorite holiday recipes. Delicious!

    I don’t know if Local Florida is orange blossom or what. Love both Mississippi tupelo, manuka from New Zealand and Australia and Florida orange blossom or sourwood. HMMMM..

    I would love to try the local hive Midwest. I have heard of how much consuming local actually prevents or helps promote certain diseases.

    I live in the northeast and would like to try the floral notes. Theres a store a couple of miles from my job.

    I like their Colorado honey: Floral notes Alfalfa, Clover, & Wildflowers
    Pure as the driven snow and pollinated by the plains East of the Rockies, our Local Colorado honey is light – but rich – with a long floral finish.
    Thanks for the contest.
