Linden

Linden honey is primarily produced in Europe, where it’s also known as lime honey; in America it’s also known as basswood honey. No matter what you call it, though, this light-yellow honey is delicate and delicious, with a hint of herbs in its aroma. Linden honey has become rarer over the years, since the tree it comes from is rapidly being harvested for home building. It’s often suggested by naturopaths for colds and bronchitis, and to calm and detoxify the body. It also has some sedative qualities that make it an ideal companion for a cup of before-bed herbal tea.
