Sourwood Honey from North Carolina is a rare and highly prized varietal known for its exceptional quality, distinctive flavor, and limited availability. Harvested in the Appalachian Mountains during a short bloom window in mid-summer, this honey is made from the nectar of the sourwood tree (Oxydendrum arboreum), a native species found primarily in the southeastern United States.
Golden to light amber in color with a smooth, buttery texture, Sourwood honey offers a rich, complex flavor profile—often described as sweet and tangy with subtle notes of anise, spice, and caramel. Its unique taste and slow crystallization make it a favorite among honey connoisseurs and chefs alike.
