A Guide to Mitchem Bee Raw Honey Varietals

Have you ever tasted the difference a single flower can make? At Mitchem Bee, we believe honey is more than just a sweetener. It's a story told by our bees, one blossom at a time. Unlike the generic blends found in most stores, our raw honey varietals are single-origin, unfiltered, and crafted exclusively by our dedicated beekeepers.

We invite you to embark on an unforgettable journey. Each bottle is an orchestra of flavor, a unique reflection of the specific Florida flora from which our bees gathered their nectar. Where will you start? Will you find your new favorite, or dive into a tasting experience to discover them all?

The Unique Flavors of Our Honey Collection

Wildflower

Savor the taste of Florida's sunshine with our pure Wildflower honey. Unlike most honey you see in stores, ours is produced locally and is not blended with inferior honeys, ensuring its superb quality. Sourced from beehives nestled amidst the vibrant wildflowers of Lake and Sumter counties, this unfiltered, raw honey captures the essence of the local flora. Every spoonful brims with a delicate sweetness and subtle floral notes. Enjoy drizzled over fruit, yogurt, or toast, or as a natural sweetener in your favorite recipes!

Orange Blossom

Taste the essence of Florida with our pure, Orange Blossom honey. Our bees gather nectar directly from Florida orange groves, resulting in an unadulterated honey that offers a delicate sweetness with subtle citrus notes. Indulge Creatively: Drizzle over fresh fruit, ice cream, toast, pie, or charcuterie. It also works wonders as a natural sweetener in your favorite recipes.

Tupelo

Indulge in tasty luxury with our Tupelo Honey, aka "liquid gold." Sourced from the rare Tupelo tree blossoms found only in pristine Florida swamps, this special nectar creates a light amber honey with buttery cinnamon and floral notes. Diabetic-friendly Delight: Unlike ordinary honey, Tupelo honey has a naturally low glycemic index, which causes a slower rise in blood sugar. (Consult your doctor!)

Saw Palmetto

Enjoy nature’s power with our rare and exquisite Florida Saw Palmetto Honey. Sourced from the resilient Saw Palmetto plant, this unique treasure boasts a rich history. Intriguing Taste: Dark and bold, Saw Palmetto honey’s complex flavor profile is ideal for sophisticated palates. Notes of wood, caramel, and citrus create a true sensory experience.

Gallberry

Our pure Florida Gallberry honey is paradise in a bottle! Sourced from the delicate white flowers of the native Gallberry bush, an evergreen holly, this honey has a strong flavor with luscious floral accents. Culinary Versatility: Its versatile sweetness makes it a perfect everyday honey to drizzle over fresh fruit, yogurt, waffles, or beverages like tea and lemonade.

Clover

Born from the vast, wildflower-strewn plains of North Dakota, our Clover honey is a taste of pure, unadulterated summer sunshine. Our hardworking bees gather nectar from endless fields of vibrant clover, resulting in simply delicious honey that's light and golden, with a clean, floral sweetness. Timeless Pairings: Perfect for just about everything, like drizzling over warm biscuits, stirring into sweet tea, or simply enjoying by the spoonful!

Blackberry

Steeped in rich southern tradition, our Central Georgia Blackberry honey captures the essence of sweet summer memories. Bursting with the sweet-tart essence of freshly ripe blackberries, this honey embodies the region's verdant landscape. Perfect Pairs: Everything from warm cornbread to creamy goat cheese to a refreshing glass of iced tea.

Brazilian Pepper

Craving a taste of tropical adventure? Our pure Brazilian Pepper honey has a flavor profile as vibrant as its origins. Sourced from the pink peppercorn plants known as ‘Florida Holly,’ its light golden hue and mild, slightly sweet flavor with a hint of earthy spice will transport you to the tropics!
