Hometown Provisions 5 lb. Baker's Special Honey - 6/Case

Honey was very dirty. Had to run through strainer twice. Just wanted you to know so I won’t be ordering Honey any longer.

This does NOT taste like alfalfa honey. Alfalfa honey should be light and have flavors of vanilla with some floral tones. This honey tastes like it has molasses in it. The color is darker than it should be and when I warmed some up in my tea, it tasted like the floor of a barn. Of course, this is a consumable product so it is not returnable. I have 3 buckets of honey I cannot use. Feels like a bait and switch. I bought some Orange Blossom a few years back and it had a similar barn floor taste, whereas true Orange Blossom honey should taste like grape candy. Their Buckwheat is delicious, though. Makes me wonder what is happening to the rest of their line.

I've bought about 4 of these 60lb buckets (orange blossom) for home-brewing over the past 3 years. A few notes on this honey: The mead you can make with this isn't at all bad and is totally drinkable, but wont knock your socks off. As a primary sugar source for brewing it is adequate. As a secondary sugar source, such as for cysers, braggots, and pyments, or to augment higher-quality honeys, it is extremely hard to beat for flavour and price. I would strongly recommend this to those wanting to get into mead, as it's a VERY economical source of honey to use as you dial in your technique and learn the craft. I would also recommend this to established home-brewers, again as an economical option for experiments or to just have around. FYI this stuff make a dang good hydromel - shoot for 6% abv, back-sweeten, and balance the acidity with lime juice.

Very reliable. The orders are shipped promptly and arrive within couple of days undamaged. I wish they had a storage place in the south USA. The shipping cost is prohibitive for small orders.

Top of (2) bottles were broken off. Product wasn't damaged. But, better care needs to be taken when shipping

For the price, this can't be beat. We use it in dressings and cookies. Really like it.

I make mead and this honey was just a little too dark. I will go back to your clover honey. However, I did make 4 batches of great mead.

Though this product is listed as "wildflower honey," and when opened it "looks" like wildflower honey, it DOES NOT have the flavor that it should have, and has artificial coloring that separates when the honey is added to liquid. My recomendation... BUY LOCAL!

Very quick delivery

Very affordable and taste great

Great honey. Will buy again

Good ??

This product is outstanding.my only issue was the packaging. I ordered two bottles of honey and both caps were broken and the box was coated with honey and leaking out. Not much honey was missing but it could have been packed much better.

On this order arrived quickly one got damaged by shipper but replaced in two day get to do business with will be placing orders in future

I was unable to even use this product, as everytime that I received the honey, it was burst open in the box that it was shipped in. Fix your shipping standards Webstaurant!

Works great for honey mead. Loved it and love that I can use it for multiple 5 gallon batches of homemade mead.

This is a wonderful honey and a great price.

Love this honey and how much I got as well ..very nice indeed .. glad I bought it .

This is a dark honey and very sweet. A little too sweet in my opinion, but I am use to using spring raw honey and while this brand is organic, it is likely from fall flowers given its darkness. Probably not something I'd buy again because it's just too sweet for my taste.
