I bought mine from the lady who keeps the bees, and sells at her door,
about 4 miles from here as the bee flies. It was a 1lb jar,
translating
from the metric.


454g. That's not bad then.

If I buy honey I normally get Rowse's set honey at under £2 a jar.
I haven't noticed any difference with the local stuff except the price.


As we age our senses diminish ...

There's nothing wrong with Rowse's except that it's imported and blended,
it's always the same. It's 'what the customer wants'. Local honey should
vary from season to season and year to year because of different forage.
