Cognac in color, quince in warmth. Hédène harvests its Alder Buckthorn Honey in July in the forests of the Gironde, where alder buckthorn blooms from April to July, sometimes into September: a rare monofloral honey. Liquid and mellow, it offers long-lasting fruity, aromatic notes and a subtly sweet, green finish, quite unlike any polyfloral honey. Drizzle it over a baked apple or a poached quince, or pair it with a Manchego.
