Acacia honey: mild, clear and liquid for a long time

Acacia honey – more precisely black locust honey – is the mildest of all honeys: crystal clear, delicate and naturally liquid for a long time.

Taste and character

Acacia honey tastes very mild and delicate, almost without a flavour of its own, with a subtle, floral sweetness. Its colour is light and transparent.

Why it stays liquid for so long

Acacia honey naturally has a high fructose content. As a result, it crystallises only very slowly and often stays liquid for over a year – ideal for dosing and sweetening.
