Weight: 250g - 8.8oz.
Packaging: Glass jar
Origin: Lorraine, France

The linden trees of Lorraine keep their own calendar. Their blossoms open unpredictably, generally from mid-May to July, before the July harvest of Hédène’s Linden Honey. White in color, it carries the scent of the linden flower in a subtler form, with a unique, powerful flavor and menthol overtones. Its sweetness is surprising, its taste long-lasting and free of acidity; like acacia honey, it is distinguished by its aromatic finesse. Stir a spoonful into a cup of tea or an herbal infusion.
