Producer's forest honey.
Forest honey is mainly made from honeydew, which is derived from plant sap, so it typically contains little pollen and many more minerals. It is a very dark coloured, very fine, succulent honey.
It has beneficial effects on the respiratory tract, blood vessel clarity, has a calming effect and is excellent for anaemia due to its high mineral content, but should not be heat treated. It is recommended to be eaten by itself, as a sweet.
What is honeydew?
Some species of insects, such as aphids and cicadas, suck the sap from plants (typically pines, oaks, and other trees) and release the extra moisture in the form of honeydew. This selected material is collected by bees, among others, and used to make forest honey.
