Buckwheat is a crop that is not widely planted in Australia and is 100% dependent on bees for pollination. It produces fascinating honey with a pungent, earthy aroma. It has a bit dry and earthy aftertaste that’s not for the fainthearted.
This rare Australian honey is somewhat sweet, dark caramel-like, with a robust punch. It’s one of the darkest honey and it has a strong flavor, looking and tasting nothing like common honey.
BENEFITS: Buckwheat honey does contain more iron, magnesium, zinc, and copper than most honey varieties.
Dark honey like buckwheat and manuka have been scientifically shown to contain more antioxidants and macronutrients than lighter varieties.
High levels of polyphenols, make buckwheat honey a good weapon against high cholesterol and high blood pressure, cardiovascular diseases, and anemia. And the antioxidants work to fight the damage that free radicals do to the body over time by boosting the immune system. That makes buckwheat honey a regularly-used treatment for gastric distress, infections.
SERVING SUGGESTIONS
I’m delicious on Buckwheat Cakes or Oat-Barley Cakes
Or added to salad dressings and marinades
Or used as a natural sweetener in your drinks and cooking.
Best tasting honey came in a perfect timing during winter, I had a cold and sore throat and it really helped compared to other honeys tried in the past. It taste like pure honey blended with organic date molasses, it goes really well with buckwheat cakes or variety of diary products, we bought two honey jars one for me and dad and we definitely go for more in the next orders.
