Experience the Diverse Flavors of Single Source Honey

This gift set includes four different varieties of our Single Source honey, allowing you to experience how nectar sources influence flavor, aroma, and color within raw honey. Each variety reflects the work of honey bees gathering nectar during different bloom periods and forage conditions throughout the season.

Basswood honey is often appreciated for its lighter and minty flavor profile, while Buckwheat honey is known for its darker color and bold, robust taste. Prairie Flower and Dutch Clover honeys each offer their own unique characteristics influenced by the flowers visited by the bees.

Because these honeys are minimally processed, they retain much of the natural flavor and qualities produced within the hive. Sampling multiple varieties side by side offers a simple introduction to the differences found in Single Source honey.

Enjoy Honey Every Day With Our Blended Honey Squeeze Bottle

Included with this collection is a 1lb squeeze container of blended table honey designed for convenient everyday use. While Single Source honey highlights specific nectar flows and seasonal flavors, blended table honey offers a balanced flavor profile that works well for daily use in the kitchen.

The squeeze bottle makes it easy to enjoy honey on toast, oatmeal, yogurt, tea, baked goods, or other everyday foods without needing a spoon or honey dipper.

100% Beeswax Votive Candles

This gift set also includes two 100% beeswax votive candles and holders. Our beeswax candles are naturally scented using wax produced by our honey bees and provide a warm glow with a subtle honey-like aroma naturally created by the beeswax itself.

Beeswax candles have long been appreciated for their clean burn and natural appearance. Unlike synthetic candles made with artificial fragrances, pure beeswax candles highlight the natural characteristics of the wax produced within the hive.

What Makes Single Source Honey Different?

Single Source honey is produced primarily from a specific nectar source or bloom period rather than being blended from multiple floral sources. Because nectar sources vary throughout the season, each honey develops unique flavors, aromas, and color characteristics.

Just as grapes influence the flavor of wine, flowers influence the taste of honey. Some honeys may taste lighter and floral while others are darker and more robust depending on the nectar gathered by the bees.

Many honey lovers enjoy comparing different honey varieties side by side to experience how seasonal blooms and forage conditions affect flavor naturally within the hive.

A Gift Set for Honey Lovers & Bee Enthusiasts

This gift collection makes a practical and thoughtful present for birthdays, holidays, host gifts, thank you gifts, and seasonal gift giving. With both raw Single Source honey and everyday table honey included, the set offers a combination of tasting experience and practical kitchen use.

The addition of handmade beeswax candles also makes the collection appealing to candle lovers, gardeners, beekeepers, and anyone interested in products connected to pollinators and natural foods.

Because the set ships in a 100% recyclable box ready to be gifted, it can be sent directly to friends, family, or customers for special occasions throughout the year.
