Buckwheat honey is much darker than all other varieties: its color varies from dark yellow to dark brown. It is produced by bees from buckwheat flowers.

An ideal product for connoisseurs of bitter taste. It only slightly tastes of bitterness, tart. It varies in color from dark yellow to reddish brown. Its differences are considered to be slow crystallization, the strongest viscosity. When it thickens, its consistency begins to resemble jelly, in the middle of which a huge number of air bubbles form. But if this honey is mixed, it will become liquid again. Extraordinarily rich in minerals.

Heather honey is effective in the absence of appetite, vascular diseases, helps with diseases of the nervous system.

This is a rather dark, thick honey, which has a pleasant bitterness. Its characteristic feature is that it crystallizes unusually slowly.

Chestnut honey has antimicrobial properties, it is also seen in a beneficial effect on the gastrointestinal tract, cardiovascular system. This honey significantly increases the body's defenses, helping to cope with kidney disease. The main suppliers of chestnut honey in Russia are Altai, Kuban and Adygea.

It is distinguished by exceptional transparency and light amber shade. This honey gives off an unusually pleasant smell, and its taste is moderately sweet. Crystallizes rather slowly, changing color to white.
Esparcet honey is considered a particularly valuable variety, as it is unusually rich in vitamins, biologically active substances and minerals. It contains a lot of carotene, ascorbic acid and valuable enzymes.
This honey has a general strengthening effect, calms the nervous system, strengthens the capillaries.

Contains a great variety of substances useful to humans. It can have a completely different color: from light amber to white, which is characterized by a greenish tint.

Bees produce honey from the nectar of flowers, which they fly countless numbers over the summer.

Usually we eat honey collected by domestic, "cultured" bees, but honey produced by wild bees is no less tasty and useful (remember, Winnie the Pooh was looking for him in a hollow?). This honey also differs in taste - mature, tart, slightly sour, and in color - dark, unclear, and in its composition - it contains much more useful substances.But, unfortunately, there is very little honey from wild bees, and we usually use honey created by domestic workers.

The chemical composition of honey

In addition to being tasty, honey is also very useful. Having a complex chemical composition, this product contains almost the entire table of periodic elements of Mendeleev: aluminum, chlorine, silicon, zinc, osmium, bromine and many other elements.
