Topic starter
 

I'm getting through a fair bit of the standard offerings at the moment. Tired of running out, and would like to try something a step up. Would like to purchase online, in a decent, lasting QTY, think poo bear size.

Any recommendations, not silly money though.

Not online, but the best honey I've tasted for a while is Co-Op Chilean runny brown fairtrade. I's got a bitterness which makes it a step up from bland sweet stuff.

Growing up our neighbor kept bees, we'd get comb honey from him it was amazing.

Thyme honey from Crete is one of my favourites (if you like a strong taste), can’t help with where to get it as a mate brings it back for me from his family out there

We got some honey from the local bee keeping club. It was so much nicer than the shop brought stuff. So I'd recommend googling for the local club and buying some off them. Way cheaper than posh honey from a shop.

Appreciate that's not met your requirement for buying online.

Lidl had a honey from Crete as part of their Greek week recently so you may still find some in store. Its not bad stuff but I was spoiled for a number of years by honey direct from a local beekeeper on the mainland.
Failing that, Attiki honey is very good.

+1 attiki honey, you'll be able to get it from online Greek shops.
Used to end up paying excess baggage on our way back from Greece due to the amount we brought back
