You will learn about over 50 single-origin honeys, their sensory profiles, where they are produced and where to buy them. Discover how to taste and evaluate honey using the same methods as a professional honey sensory expert.

From its health benefits, to recipes, to food pairings, this complete guide covers all things honey!

Honey is the latest food trend that can be found at farmers' markets, specialty food shops and on the menu of restaurants. It is produced from bees in every state and just about every country on the planet. Let Honey For Dummies accompany you on your sweet adventure!
