Types of Honey

The bee assimilates the juice of various kinds of medicinal flowers and fruits to use to form the honey which it stores in its cells of wax. The different kind of flower from which it makes its honey gives different colors to the honey, example it can be dark brown, light brown yellow, golden brown, white and so on.

The taste and flavor also varies, as in the case of healthier honey, the honey formed from scented flowers, and so on. As food it is sweet and wholesome. You can use honey to take cereals, drink pap, tea and to eat yam and bread for bakery. The best honey is the one produced during harvesting season. Because it is the season of abundant fruits, flowers etc from where the honey bees get the juices.

The second best honey is the one produced at the millet season. Then followed by the one produced in the dry season. This is because flowers are so rare in the season. Anywhere you want to buy honey please kindly test it with water. Pour water in a glass cup or bottle cork first, then pour the honey.
