New Trader Joe Product Alert: Turkish Honey

Well I just added my review to counter those.

Maybe they had a bad product. What I bought has no resemblance to the product those reviews are describing. My Russian housekeeper tried it today and went nuts over it and asked me to pick her up a jar next time I was in TJs. I guess I need to stock up before it disappears.

 
I brought home some amazing honey from Mykonos...

The thyme and fir honeys were out of this world!

I have yet to open a jar of rosemary honey that I bought in Munich.

 
Yes, I think it is real honey

I'm thinking those two reviewers either got a bad batch or maybe they're used to the thin grocery store commercial junk which I never buy. I am very particular about honey and I either buy imported German or local honey for the most part so that I know I'm getting real quality honey. There was an excellent local honey on Kauai that I also loved. Unfortunately, that is all gone now.

Also, the jar I bought was only $5. Much easier to try that way than the $18 markup that reseller is doing on Amazon.

 
Agree on the fir/conifer honey. It is amazing stuff.

I first had it in Alsace and it was like I had been coloring with the 8 color Crayola box and someone had just given me the 64 color box. Fir/pine/tannenbaum/etc. is always my first choice when I buy honey.

 
I recently bought a jar of Palmetto honey at a small vegetable market

near me sold by a local producer and it was delicious. I didn't even realize that Saw Palmetto honey was such a large market.

 
Well I've got it on my list now. I buy from a beekeeper wherever I am...

just can never go back to the stuff in the plastic bear ever again, you get so used to real, fresh honey.

 
I will be interested to hear your impressions. Pine honey is very different that the commercial

grocery store stuff. But if you're buying local honey, you have an appreciation for the depths of flavor of real honey. The rose is what really hit me on this one. Pine and rose, just wish I'd discovered this before my Christmas baking. It would have been perfect.

 
is the information in one of those comments about "honeydew" type of honey accurate
