This year I pulled some honey supers early as they were full and I wanted to encourage the bees to keep working away. I ended up with roughly 25 pounds of this early honey, and recently bottled it up. I was interested in seeing what the differences were between this early Spring honey and my regular season honey that I gather in July.

The spring honey was noticeably lighter than my normal honey. The taste isn’t much different, though maybe a little sweeter with less aftertaste. I’m typically a fan of lighter honey’s so this makes sense.

It was an interesting exercise, and nice to have enough honey to do such an experiment.

May you prosper and find honey.
