A treat!

Absolutely delicious, a real treat! It has the consistency of a yummy homemade icing. Not as sticky or thick as some other tea honey. Adds a delicious flavor to tea.

This honey is absolutely amazing!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

This is my go to teas sweetener when I want to sweeten my green or chamomile teas. It has just the right amount of sweetness without overpowering. The white honey has floral notes and is very mild. It's perfect!

I enjoyed this honey. I mix it with my local honey and it adds a new dimension to my teas as a sweetener. I am looking forward to trying the Hawaiian Honey with Lavender.

The Best Honey
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

I thought all honey was the same, boy was I wrong. This honey's taste spoils me for any other kind. I put it in my hot tea and mix in my oatmeal. I also just stick a spoon in the jar, it is that good!

Excellent honey

This honey is so good. But, it is very expensive. I like the ROT white honey due to the price point so I buy that one instead.

THE BEST (apparently)
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

Ok so, DISCLAIMER: I have not tried this! I gifted it to my sister, who is a CONNOISSEUR of all things teatime & drinks approximately 25 cups of tea a day. She told me that it's the BEST honey she's ever tasted! While I myself rarely use honey, I'll take her word for it, because this girl knows her stuff. Kinda pricey, yes... but WORTH IT if you or the recipient is a honey snoot 🧐

Amazing honey!!!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

I'm honestly super obsessed with this honey I must have purchased 4 bottles already. For some reason this particular honey makes me feel happy feelings. I'm not exactly a honey fanatic but this honey and my mgo new zealand honey are my two top favorite. I love adding to my tea or just having a spoonful as my morning routine.

Simply the best

My daughter loves this honey and I make sure to include it in her Christmas stocking. She needed more so I reordered. It is creamy and she feels it imparts the purge that amount of sweetness to her teas. She feels no other honey compares.

Honey like butter

I love this honey and extremely happy I decided on getting it versus using the traditional honey from the store. It's what I use as a sweeter for my tea instead of sugar, and it's wonderful! I will be buying this again as the temperature drops and me warming up. It's delicious!

Amazing Rare White Kiawe Honey
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

We were so happy to have found a few jars on Republic of Tea's website, as the Company in Hawaii was out of stock. This honey is produced only a few times a year, so grab it while you can. It's creamy and there are floral notes of plumeria, ginger, and even pikake. I haven't tasted any notes of actual kiawe (mesquite), but this honey is divine and we've been using it for years since discovering it in Honolulu. It keeps in the fridge if you're not going to use all of it immediately, but the jar doesn't seem to last very long in our home.

This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

This is a most delicious honey spread. I used to buy this in the grocery but have not seen it for years. If you leave the jar out a bit before you cook your toast, it is ready to spread; also very good on English muffins.

Loved it so much, ordered more!
This shopper rated the product 3 out of 5 stars

Feel in love with it the 1st time we ordered it. Textured is creamy and right amount of sea salt to give it a nice salty taste. Ordered 2 more! This time the texture is grainy and not quite as good as the 1st jar was. Not sure if it was a bad batch this time around or what. Disappointed that it not delicious as the 1st jar to eat it by the spoonful all by itself.

This honey has a flavor all its own. It is delicious and tastes better than other honeys I have tried like the ones you find in most grocery stores. My son originally gave me this honey as a gift. It is so flavorful I could eat it straight from the jar... and sometimes I do!

Used to buy this very special Big Island honey when I lived on Kauai @ a fruit stand on the north shore, Banna Joe's! But when I moved back to the mainland I was bummed I couldn't find it. But then I saw it in a catalog of The Republic of Tea!! Boooo-yah!!

The best honey I've ever tasted
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

This is honey perfection. It has a delicate sweetness, with no after taste, as some honeys will have. It's actually the only reason I'm sold on the Cranberry Spice Hibiscus tea. I tried it first without honey, and was unimpressed. Then I added this honey to it, and it did a masterful job of bringing out the flavors of the tea.

PERFECTION!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

I decided to try this honey on a whim and I am so happy that I did! This is absolutely my new favorite honey...delicate, smooth, and creamy perfection! I have tried it with every type/flavor of TRoT teas that I own and I am yet to find any that this honey doesn't pair perfectly with! Instead of overpowering the teas, this light honey seems to bring out the natural flavors even more with just the right sweetness to back them up. I prefer loose leaf teas and would recommend not using more than 1/2 of the "official" TRoT teaspoon of this honey per cup (I like sweeter teas, but I find I usually use about 1/4). To be honest, I often catch myself dipping-in to the jar for a little taste of the honey only while I'm waiting for my tea to steep.

Though I can not vouch for the taste myself, I have bought this as a gift for my mother-in-law a couple of times. She shared it with her mom, and sisters, and they all LOVED it! They said it was delicious, delicate, and not overpowering in the tea. When they ran out, she was desperately wanting to know where to get more.

I was pleasantly surprised with the flavor of this honey. It's a nice compliment to the different teas and amazing on biscuits. I didn't enjoy the floral notes as much as the sweetness, but it wasn't too over powering; it was a nice balance.

This honey has a wonderful mouthfeel and a very light, delicate honey taste - it really lets the flavors of your tea shine through. Better yet, I found it here for $17.95 when it's $22+ at Whole Foods. Since I qualified for free shipping I got a great deal!

This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

I was born and raised in Hawaii, moved to IL for college and never returned. Grew up with Hawaiian lehua honey and never realized how much I missed it until I saw this jar offered in a RofT catalog a few years ago. I ordered a jar and was blown away not only with the quality, taste and unbelievable smoothness but at the fond memories just spreading it on my morning toast brought back. I've turned my brother on to this honey as I was tired of him finding the hiding place for my honey in my kitchen. We both now guard our treasure just for ourselves!

My new favorite thing
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

After reading great reviews and hearing about this for years...I finally bought a jar. Oh my goodness!!! This thick, pale, sweet, organic honey is like nothing I have ever tasted before. As others have mentioned, there is no aftertaste. I think the price is fair given that it is coming from Hawaii in limited quantities. I love it in any type of tea. That said, my 4 year old and I also will have a spoon of it as dessert!

Floral & Light
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

This is the best honey I have ever tasted. The flavor is light and floral, and the sweetness leaves no after taste. It is very solid, which makes me wonder if it has a high bees wax content. I would say the flavor is light and not over powering, and tastes creamy, smooth, floral, delicately sweet, and a little buttery. When I savor the floral flavor, it makes me think of the tropical Hawaiian flowers that the bees collect pollen from...very exotic. :-)
