Haven't read any specific articles here about honey, so here is one to start off
Unfortunately, the majority of honey sold in supermarkets is adulturated in some way, either bulked up by adding sucrose, water or even syrup
The difference when you experience the real thing is noticeable, and of course has much better health properties than adulturated honey
My neighbour is on the committee of the Royal Cape Golf Club in Wynberg, Cape Town and in January last year they introduced 12 bee-hives in their very large grounds, adjacent to the Youngsfield Air Force, which has been a neglected part of Cape Town for years. This was soon augmented to 22 be-hives and they harvest honey regularly. There is such a demand that you now have to place an order and wait a few weeks
Depending on the part of the course the hives are located, there are subtle flavour differences. One section is in a gum tree forest and this is quite distinct
They have now registered their own label
