Eucalyptus
Honey

Eucalyptus honey is a pure natural honey from a variety of eucalyptus tree types. Light amber in colour, the honey is rich and silky smooth with an elegance of ripe apricot and white pepper evolving into a rich butterscotch finish with high notes of eucalyptus freshness and umami.

The honey is produced from honeybees pollinating the blossoms of the eucalyptus tree and sometimes gathering of the honeydew found on the bark of these trees. It has a medium-dark colour and may have a red tinge. It has been found that the darker the colour of eucalyptus honey, the more pronounced a reddish tint will be. It can range from tart to sweet and is best consumed raw, unfiltered, and unheated.
