Raw Black Mangrove Honey 18 oz. - La Finca del Nene

Black Mangrove Honey
18 oz
Farm: La Finca del Nene

Ingredients: raw honey

One of Florida's rarest honeys. Black mangrove (Avicennia germinans) grows only along the state's southern coasts and the Keys, rooted in brackish, tidal water, and it blooms for just a few weeks in early summer. La Finca del Nene's bees work those coastal blossoms during that short window, and the result is a honey unlike anything from inland hives: light in color, smooth and silky in texture, with a delicate sweetness and a soft, almost saline finish that tastes of the coast itself.

Raw, unfiltered, and never pasteurized, with its natural pollen, enzymes, and antioxidants intact. Because the bloom is brief and the harvest is small, this is a limited variety — when a season's supply is gone, it is gone until the mangroves flower again.

Pair it with our fresh farm cheeses, spoon it over raw Greek yogurt, or keep it for the table, where its lightness lets everything else shine. An 18-ounce jar, bottled in small batches in the Redlands.

Raw honey may crystallize over time — that is a sign of the real thing. Set the jar in warm water to return it to liquid.
