Gallberry Honey 45oz

Gallberry honey is a favorite among foodies and chefs as it goes well as a sugar substitute for dishes, pastries and drinks. Its warm and rich honey flavor adds a twist to usual home cooking and baking fare. This honey also has a thick consistency and is known for its lack of crystals (it takes a while for it to crystallize in contrast with other types of honey). This is caused by a high level of diastase enzymes in it which is responsible for preventing Gallberry honey from crystallizing even in cold temperatures.<br><br>Gallberry usually goes in full bloom during the month of May and can be found growing mostly in the low flatlands of North Carolina, Northern Florida and Georgia. Other sources state that Gallberry, which is harvested from the holly bush, also grows abundantly in the wetlands of Southeast Florida and the Gulf and South Atlantic Coast. This local honey is recommended for people with allergies.
