"A perfect entry point for jumping into all things apiary."―Saveur

Showcases the wonderful world of honey from hive to jar.

A beautifully illustrated global survey of the flavour of honey, The World Atlas of Honey includes:

  • Profiles of more than 80 countries and their botanical sources of honey
  • The global history of honey production, from the earliest beekeepers to today's harvest
  • Text, illustrations, and photos celebrating the exceptional range and diversity of honey
  • The methods used by honey sommeliers to taste and evaluate honey

This colourful guide celebrates the exceptional range and diversity of honey, revealing how terroir—the environment in which a food is produced—influences honey's qualities just as it does for wine, olive oil, coffee, and chocolate.

Unique and authoritative, The World Atlas of Honey puts honey on the culinary map and elevates it to an epicurean treasure.
