What Does Basswood Honey Taste Like?
Basswood Honey is known for its light character, floral fragrance, and complex flavor. It has distinctive hints of mint and flowers that give it a recognizable profile without making it heavy or overpowering. Its delicate, aromatic character makes it especially appealing to people who enjoy exploring varietal honeys and noticing the differences created by individual nectar sources.
The Basswood Comb Honey offers that same distinctive honey in its natural comb, while the jar provides an easy way to enjoy it throughout the day. The two formats make it possible to experience the character of Basswood Honey in different ways, whether you're tasting a piece of comb on its own or drizzling the jarred honey over a favorite food.

Two Ways to Enjoy Basswood Honey: Comb and Jar
The appeal of this bundle is being able to enjoy Basswood Honey in two distinct formats. The comb gives you the traditional experience of honey stored inside edible beeswax, while the jar provides a convenient format for everyday serving.
Rather than choosing between the two, this bundle lets you explore both. Serve the comb when you want something special for a cheese board or gathering, and keep the jar available for breakfast, snacks, baking, or simple drizzling.
Prefer Just the Basswood Honey?
Purchase the 9 oz jar of Basswood Honey separately if you're looking for the convenience of jarred honey.

How Basswood Honey Makes Its Way From the Hive to You
Basswood Honey comes from the nectar of basswood trees, also known as linden trees. The nectar collected by honeybees from these fragrant trees contributes to the light color, floral fragrance, and distinctive flavor associated with Basswood Honey.
Honeycomb is created by worker bees from beeswax. The bees build the comb structure before filling its individual cells with honey and eventually sealing the filled cells with additional beeswax. When you enjoy honey in the comb, the honey remains in the natural structure created by the bees.
The Basswood Comb & Honey Bundle brings these two forms together. The comb provides a traditional way to experience honey in its natural beeswax structure, while the jar makes the honey easy to serve and enjoy in everyday foods.
Why Choose the Basswood Comb & Honey Bundle?
This bundle is designed for anyone who wants more than one way to experience Basswood Honey. The 5 oz piece of comb gives you an edible honeycomb experience that is especially suited to tasting and sharing, while the 9 oz jar provides a convenient format that can be enjoyed again and again.
It also makes it easy to compare the traditional comb presentation with the convenience of jarred honey. And because the bundle is 13% off, saving $3.75 compared with purchasing the two products separately, you can enjoy both formats together while paying less than you would for the individual products.
