A faint reddish hue gives it away. Hédène’s Acacia Honey & Espelette Pepper brings together French acacia honey, naturally gentle and fluid, and Espelette pepper, the celebrated chili of the Basque Country, in a sweet-and-spicy preparation. Round at first, then gently warming, it develops deep aromas and a long finish. A few drops are enough to lift a marinade, a sauce, or a cheese board; try it too as a glaze for pork ribs or duck breast.
