buckwheat honey

Molasses-like bee product

Buckwheat honey is honey produced by bees that feed primarily on buckwheat blossoms.

It has a distinctively dark color and robust, molasses-like flavor—earthier and less sweet than clover or wildflower honeys.

Prized for baking and home remedies: A spoonful of buckwheat honey soothes a sore throat.
