About this honey
Oregon Fireweed Honey Fireweed is a tall and colorful mountain wildflower. The vibrant pink-purple flowers are a brilliant contrast to the greens and browns of the Cascade Mountain conifers. Fireweed is an early seral plant, meaning it grows where there has been recent soil disturbance. Most commonly, fireweed regenerates on the forest floor after wildfire and grows rapidly like a weed, hence its name. Fireweed honey is known as the champagne of honeys. Its flavor is mild and delicate, sweet, and with just touch of spice at the finish. The bees forage on a variety of mountain wildflowers while fireweed is in bloom giving this honey some color variability each season. It is generally white to light amber in color. Note: Our Fireweed Honey is pure, raw, and unadulterated, and may crystalize as a result. This is to be expected of natural honey and does not impact the usability of the product.
