Origin
Gâtinais, France

Carrots flower too, from June to August, and the bees do not miss it. In the Gâtinais Regional Natural Park, Hédène harvests this rare, unusual Carrot Honey from July to September. One of France’s most distinctive honeys, it has a biscuit color and a creamy texture; fruity and lightly tart on the palate, mild in intensity, it reveals a surprising richness of flavor. Try it in a carrot cake or a gingerbread, or with a creamy Brie.
