5.0 out of 5 stars Taste, quality and price - great, but not "raw honey" by Wikipedia's definition, July 13, 2009

This review is from: Miller's Honey, Wild, 3-Pound Jar (Pack of 2) (Grocery)

Miller's Honey tastes great but by Wikipedia's definition is not actually "raw honey". I got my information by calling Miller's Honey (and I think their products are great, by the way).

Miller's Honey is heated to 130 °F. Maybe that is close enough by some people's standards. But please read the following from Wikipedia:

"Raw honey is honey as it exists in the beehive or as obtained by extraction, settling or straining without adding heat above 120 °F." There are some honey brands that do not heat their honey whatsoever, such as White Gold, but unheated honey is always more expensive, I suppose because of the health benefits.

Also from Wikipedia: "Excessive heat-exposure also results in product deterioration, as it increases the level of hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) and reduces enzyme (e.g. diastase) activity. The heat also affects appearance, taste, and fragrance. Heat processing can also darken the natural honey color (browning)."

I think this is an important distinction because otherwise Amazon shoppers will think this is by far the cheapest RAW HONEY available -probably anywhere. Of course, you can't argue with the price of Miller's Honey even though it is heated to 130 °F.

I also noticed that at least one reviewer claimed this product was organic. As I stated, I called the company. They say it is not organic. However, they do say it is certified Kosher and that it is USDA Grade A -not that anybody doubted that!

Miller's Honey is an amazing company with fabulous products, and they have great customer service too. They even sell 5 gallon buckets of this honey, but you can't do better on this particular one than to buy it through Amazon. This product deserves 5 Amazon stars.

The price is great. Just make sure you're comparing apples to apples when you look at prices of raw honey.

5.0 out of 5 stars Too good for words, July 18, 2007

This honey is just as advertised! In fact, even better. As someone who has been collectng and tasting honey for a couple of decades, this jar takes a place of honor besides several others. I go to it regularly to sweeten my tea. Bravo! You want good honey? Go no further, this is the place to begin (and perhaps end).

5.0 out of 5 stars *Excellent* value, September 21, 2007

Full, rich, and only slightly wild taste. Next to the raw stuff straight from a hive, the best honey I think I've ever tasted.
