Acacia Honey

Floral Source & Origin Acacia honey comes from the nectar of the creamy-white acacia tree blossoms. When in full bloom, acacia trees are loaded with clusters of flowers which perfume the air and summon the bees. The acacia tree (also known as a Black Locust) is native to the Eastern United States. In the mid-1700's, some of these trees were sent over to England. From there, they spread rapidly over Europe. Today, some parts of Eastern Europe have vast acacia forests where large honey crops are made. In past years, we have sourced acacia honey from Ukraine and Romania, both of which make amazing acacia honey. But getting honey from either of these locations is a bit tricky these days, plus international shipping costs have gone through the roof. Our current supply comes from Pennsylvania. This honey is darker in color as compared to the European crops, but the flavor is excellent. Flavor Profile Acacia honey has a very mild flavor. Delicate fruity-floral notes linger in the backgrou
