Frequently asked questions about Lime Tree Honey
What does lime honey taste like?
It is a unifloral honey with a balsamic aroma, menthol notes and herbs; on the palate it is fresh, medium sweet, with possible slight bitterness at the end. The color ranges from light yellow to ivory when it crystallizes. In Italy it is usually harvested between late June and July, often in hilly and alpine areas. On Bbuono we select small-scale beekeepers who work in an artisanal way that respects the blooms.
Does lime honey crystallize? How to make it fluid again?
Yes, it tends to crystallize naturally from late summer, usually with fine granulation. This is a normal process that does not alter quality or taste. To soften it, warm it in a lukewarm water bath (not boiling water, max ~40 °C) with the jar tightly closed, stirring gently.
What to pair lime honey with?
It’s great in teas and herbal teas (its menthol character enhances infusions), with fresh cheeses and goat’s milk cheeses, on yogurt and fruit, in light marinades for white meats or baked vegetables. To preserve flavors and fragrances, add it to drinks that are lukewarm and no higher than 40°C.
How is lime honey stored and how long does it last?
Store the jar tightly closed in a cool, dry place away from light. Avoid heat sources and the refrigerator (can accelerate crystallization). Respect the minimum shelf life indicated on the label; flavors and fragrances remain best within the first 12 to 24 months after harvest.
