About Thyme honey

Thyme honey is honey made by bees foraging substantially on thyme flowers, though the proportion of nectar from thyme can vary by location and season. It is used as a sweetener and spread, as well as in cooking. The name describes a floral source, not a fixed formulation or guaranteed single-flower composition.

It is usually sold as a liquid, but like other honey it can crystallize into a thicker, opaque texture. Colour ranges from pale amber to darker amber, and its aroma and flavour may be herbal, floral and sweet, with variation among harvests. It may be sold raw, filtered or otherwise processed.
