Buckwheat honey is a monofloral honey that bees collect from buckwheat blossoms. Our buckwheat honey comes from certified organic buckwheat fields in Latvia, where small white and pinkish flowers provide nectar for bees during the warmest part of the summer.

It is one of Latvia’s richest and most distinctive honeys, known for its deep color, strong aroma, and bold character rather than a mild and neutral taste.

In Latvia, buckwheat usually blooms in July and August, which makes buckwheat honey a summer-season honey. For beekeepers, it is a valuable harvest because buckwheat can give a strong nectar flow when the weather is warm and humid, but it can also be unpredictable if conditions are too dry, cold, or windy.

Buckwheat honey is usually dark in color, ranging from deep amber to brown. It has a strong, warm aroma: malty, earthy, herbal, and slightly caramel-like. The taste is intense and full-bodied, sweet, but not simply sweet; it can have notes of malt, caramel, molasses, toasted grain, and herbs. One of its most distinctive features is its rich, lingering aftertaste.

Buckwheat honey is valuable precisely because it is deep, expressive, and naturally full of character. It contains the sugars, enzymes, organic acids, minerals, and aromatic compounds naturally found in honey. Compared with lighter honeys, buckwheat honey is often valued for its higher content of minerals and phenolic compounds, which give it a darker color, stronger aroma, and deeper flavor.

know what you are buying

We carefully select small, independent beekeepers from whom we purchase honey. It is important to us that honey is collected from natural meadows and fields in Latvia, which are not surrounded by crops. This way, we are sure that our packed honey contains nectar from thousands of flowers. Each flower has its energy, value, and beauty, and you can find that all in our honey. The purity and value of honey are tested by performing analysis on at least 10 different indicators.

If you want to see all the analysis reports and get acquainted with their detailed description, you can find them in the section
"MEET OUR BEEKEEPER".

There are a description of honey of this batch, where it came from, who is the Beekeeper who collected it, about bees and of course full analysis reports and their detailed descriptions.
