Taste, colour and texture
Chestnut honey does not crystallise quickly and remains liquid for a long time.
However, it is naturally dark and amber in colour when it is liquid and darkens further when it becomes solid.
It has an intense and strong flavour with a hint of bitterness.
Its smell is reminiscent of the wood from which it comes.
Very distinctive, it is a special honey that is not usually appreciated by children.
