Description

Australian by Nature Leatherwood Honey 500g is 100% natural, collected directly from the beehive processed and packaged to retain freshness and quality.

Leatherwood Honey’s distinct spicy flavour has given it a reputation of a fine gourmet product. Leatherwood honey is, as its name suggests the honey that bees produce from the nectar of the Leatherwood (Eucryphia lucida) plants’ flower. The Leatherwood plant is endemic to Tasmania and is found in the wetter forest regions throughout the Western portion of the state. Leatherwood is the single most important nectar plant in Tasmania accounting for about 70% of all honey produced. Unblended Leatherwood honey has a unique taste and smell which is quite different from blended honey.

It also contains chemical elements such as Sodium, Calcium, Potassium, Magnesium, Phosphorus, Selenium, Copper, Iron, Manganese, Chromium and Zinc. Honey is composed of two main sugars, fructose and dextrose. Honey is a healthy natural alternative to processed sugars and artificial sweeteners and these natural sugars are easily absorbed into the human body. There are other vitamins and minerals in small quantities which give honey its colour, flavour and physical properties.
