Origin: Lubéron, France

From mid-June to early August, lavender blooms across the Lubéron, and the bees follow. The most fragrant of Hédène’s honeys, this creamy monofloral Lavender Honey is harvested from late July to early September. Sweeter than oak honey, it has exceptional floral notes, subtle nuances of fresh fruit, and a light acidity, with woody, green aromas that linger and a hint of sweet almond on the finish. Let it melt softly over warm toast or brioche, or pair it with a fresh goat’s cheese.
