New Zealand Clover Honey With Honey Comb

In New Zealand there is many different types of honey, which comes from the pollen which the bees collect.
Clover, Manuka, Borage, Kamahi, Ling Heather, Rata, Rewa Rewa, Tawai, Pohutakawa, Nodding Thistle, Honey Dew, Penny Royal.

If your wanting a clover honey like this one which is classed as one of the cheaper honey's you would place the bee hives in fields of clover.

The most experience type of honey is Manuka but it didn't used to be this way as Manuka honey used to be used as pig food until someone saw the health benefits and started marketing it, then the price started increasing and as so stopped being giving to the pigs.

There is also blended honey which is mixes of different pollen's, for example like 50/50 clover and manuka.

There is also flavored honey where you can get strawberry or blueberry flavored honeys.

Honey comb is quite chewy like a light chewing gum when eating it, with nutritional values.

Honey is used in many different ways not just for spreading across your toast, many use it as a sugar replacement, some use it on cuts/sores/cold-sores for it antibacterial properties not just on humans but on animals also.

People add honey into beauty products, health care products, toothpaste, shampoos etc also.

Whats your favorite Honey Blend?

Oh how I wish we could afford to buy honey these days. It is crazy! If I didn't live in town I'd be tempted to get my own hives.

Here's a bit of kiwi nostalgia... loved this show as a kid!

Honey prices just seen to go up, this is a treat for the kids, which ranges from $10 - $15 which is better than buying a whole lot of lollies and unhealthy treats for them.

Never heard of Buzzo'Bumble's have to go look this up now.
I remember the Kiwi and the cat that used to come on tv to say good night to the kids.

I love manuka honey from New zealand
I love the honey in Yemen.
Thank you for this beautiful post about honey.
Actually honey is one of my favorite natural
facemask. Honey is very nice too with garlic, honey with garlic has numerous health benefits.

Manuka honey is yummy.
Whats the Honey from Yemen like?
Do you just put the honey straight on your face or is it mixed with other ingredients?

Hello 😃 @biglipsmama...
The most expensive honey in the world is claimed to be Sidr Honey around
$200-250 per kilo.
It c omes from Hadramaut Mountain from Southwestern Arabian peninsula. Its proven 17x better than any other honey in the world.

About the honey face mask, I used honey mixed with teaspoon of plain yoghurt,
Honey with coconut oil, the result is very superb. Or you may want honey with aloevera thats amazing too. This are tried and tested for me, and all of this facemask worked really good. Thank you very much!

Nice honey comb there yummy yummy. Wish I could get one

We'll have to try really hard to see if some Honey Makers would consider coming and using Steemit and accepting Steem.

Yummy

Great information, my wife, my daughter and I are surprised with the beauty of new zealand, we hope life gives us the opportunity to travel to that beautiful place, honey an essential element for health, here in Mexico there are hard times for the bees, every time they are less, the people opt for industrialized honey, only in the province we can find real honey.

Thank You, Hope your able to all travel here one day, Mexico looks very beautiful also you have a beach lifestyle also in some parts.

The issues the bee keepers are having here is in some parts people taking there hives.

for the best honey
You must enter Turkey

That sounds interesting and scary both at the same time.
What type of honey is sold in Turkey?

Anzer honey only For Türkiye but very expensive

Probably what we grew up on, but I prefer clover honey the best, and with the comb, it is impossible to resist.
Years ago we had an old [60+] at Ohakea, he would finish his meals with a full cup of tea, and a teaspoon of honey. By the time he had beaten the honey into the tea to make it dissolve he was left with a quarter of a cup of tea and a very wet table, but he enjoyed it.[we left the table to him, it was safer and drier]

So hide the Honey comb for you then @len.george.
That is too funny, he must of liked his honey mixed all in.

He enjoyed it, we left him to it, I think the record was 1 table all around him vacant and wet

Great Pictures & Post!
The honey looks so good and the blueberry one sounds interesting. Thanks for sharing and steem on :)

Thanks,
The blueberry one is great for kids that don't really like the honey flavor.

Looks soo delicious !
