Oregon Honey and Honey Products
|
Honey is "manufactured" in one of the world's most
efficient factories, the beehive. Bees may travel as far
as 55,000 miles and visit more than two million flowers to
gather enough nectar to make just a pound of honey.
The color and flavor of honey differ depending on the bees'
nectar source (the blossoms). In fact, there are more than 300
unique kinds of honey in the United States, originating from
such diverse floral sources as clover, eucalyptus and orange
blossom. In general, lighter colored honeys are mild in
flavor; while darker honeys are usually more robust in flavor.
Honey is primarily composed of fructose, glucose and water.
It also contains other sugars as well trace enzymes, minerals,
vitamins and amino acids.
