White Honey, a cure for many ailments, differs from other honeys, which are generally light or dark yellow in color, in its appearance and taste. Its taste is lighter and its texture is crystalline and smooth. Its color comes from the plants whose pollen the bees collect. Flowers like sage, trees that can hold on at high altitudes, and honey obtained from various types of clover have this color.
A common feature of these plants is that their flowers are pale. One of the most important factors in the color of honey is the type of bee that produces it. Although it's often referred to as white honey, this type of honey isn't always pure white. It can be pale yellow or cream. The color can also vary depending on the plant from which it's produced.
There are various subtypes of white honey. It's widely produced in Turkey, especially by beekeepers in Artvin and Ardahan. Caucasian bees are the only bees capable of producing white honey in this region. Caucasian bees, found in the mountainous regions of the Caucasus, produce white honey due to their distinct genetic makeup and their interaction with plants growing at higher altitudes. Another characteristic of honey is that it's RAW. Any type of honey that hasn't been filtered or pasteurized is considered raw honey. Raw honey means that honey extracted from the hive is sent for sale without being subjected to heat treatment, and in this case, the honey's protein, minerals, pollen, propolis, and other contents are not removed. Our honey is white due to the authenticity of the Caucasian bee race and the color of the nectar collected from the roots of plants at high altitudes. In products with lower prices than normal, we can assume that the honey has been heated and processed.
