Varietal Honey
Varietal honey, or monofloral honey, is honey predominantly produced from the nectar of one plant species, such as rapeseed, acacia, or linden. Verification is performed through pollen analysis (melissopalynology) and sensory testing to confirm the dominant nectar source. Varietal honeys command higher prices due to their distinctive flavor profiles and consumer appeal.
