Not the adulterated stuff found on most supermarket shelves that are a blend of honeys quite often sourced from China with who knows what added to the honey but the 100% natural stuff.
I just got a small batch of Borage Honey from Black Mountain Honey, North Wales, its totally delicious. Not too runny, honey crystal clear and tastes wonderful.
Something to sweeten up your week a bit more after Bonne Bonne's winner
Always bring some back from Rhodes, they do some great varieties in the Bee museum shop. Sometimes when driving through the mountains there will be local sellers in the lay-bys. Love it on porridge and yoghurt.
favourite cheese mature Cheddar. FFS there is no such thing as the EPL

I do the same every morning, Think I heard Jonathan Agnew recommends it too.
Ted, I've mentioned this to my son who suffers with hayfever - does it work? He won't listen to me about this for a couple more years, but any extra ammo may help.

Mate it was recommended to me by my eldest son who's a long time hay fever sufferer whereby I only started getting hay fever a few years ago (and bloody asthma). Most doctors would probably recommend local honey (it's all to do with the pollen).
Manuka honey is not only brilliant it's also bloody expensive
My Father had a profound influence on me, he was a lunatic.
Manuka honey is elixir from the Gods... the proper purity stuff charged accordingly, but it's brilliant.
Our youngest dog was attacked about 10 weeks ago and had a nasty puncture wound. Washed out with salt water then daily applied the honey, put him in a QPR shirt (probably worse than the bite pain for him!) and within two weeks he was right as rain.
No vet bill.
Sweet as.
Cherish and enjoy life.... this ain't no dress rehearsal
Honey is supposed to be the only foodstuff which never goes off. I love the stuff.
I haven't tried any of it but my French cousin has now started bee keeping.
"Things had started becoming increasingly desperate at Loftus Road but QPR have been handed a massive lifeline and the place has absolutely erupted. it's carnage. It's bedlam. It's 1-1."
Got a couple of 1L bottles of the stuff from Kyrgyzstan about 5 years ago. One bottle was not quite runny but not solid either, the other was more solid/crystalline and both tasted wonderful. Took a couple of years to get through. Yum.

My dad (god rest, ex-R's season ticket holder) had nasty open wounds on both legs a few years back. He applied manuka honey to the wounds, then dressed them. He left the dressings on for 2 weeks (didn't renew them or apply more honey). When he removed the dressings his legs were totally healed.
My 9 year old daughter used to sing that When we sang We are the Rangers Boys, Stand up and make some noise, her version was We are the Rangers Girls, Stand up and do a twirl.
I have honey on my cereal everyday. I must confess to getting the Morrisons own brand (blend of eu and non eu stuff) on the whole.
Occasionally I treat myself to something more special and whenever I go away somewhere I always try to source a nice locally produced honey to bring home with me.
I was in Bridport last month and went in a small food and spice shop called Fruits of Earth. Great little place. I was barked at by the owner for not noticing the 'one in one out' sign near the entrance. Distracted by all the beautiful produce. I apologised when it was my turn to go in and the anger soon drained from his face. He gave me a knowing look when I plonked a jar of West Dorset Honey produced by C. A. Brown, Bridport on the counter. Totally delicious it is too!

A bee-keeper told me that before it's healing qualities were discovered, manuka honey was considered the lowest quality honey in New Zealand - it was the stuff you had to more or less give away. He was always hoping that someone would discover a heath benefit for ivy honey as that was the least sought-after British honey.
He also maintained that all monies give you some of the benefits of Manuka, it's just that Manuka s the best, so a spoonful of any honey is better than nothing. I'm sure you're right on the local honey. My personal favourites are from bees kept in apple orchards.
