Taste, colour and texture

Probably the best known honey, acacia honey comes from the flowers of the locust tree. It is particularly soft and delicate and has a subtle flavour.

In terms of texture, it has the ability to remain liquid for a long time, as it crystallises very slowly.

Thanks to this, it keeps for a long time, especially if it is protected from light and at room temperature.

It is therefore easy to use in baking or for sweetening hot and cold drinks.

It is also one of the best honeys for sweetening tea, because its subtlety and sweetness do not distort your tea.

Its colour is quite light, it is considered a blonde honey, sometimes with light green reflections.

All these characteristics make it a honey that children will love!
