Tupelo Honey™

Tupelo Honey™ is produced from the Tupelo gum tree.

Real Tupelo Honey™ is light amber in color and light golden with a greenish cast. The flavor is delicious and distinctive - a choice table honey! Good white Tupelo Honey™, unmixed with other honeys, will not granulate. Due to the high levulose content and low dextrose ratio, diabetic patients have been permitted by their physicians to eat Tupelo Honey™. Average analysis: Levulose 44.03%, dextrose 29.98%. (Please consult your doctor first)

Black Tupelo, Ti-Ti, Black-gum, Willow, and several other honey plants that bloom in advance of white Tupelo, are used to build up bee colony strength and stores.

The important point we wish to make here is that not all honey labeled Tupelo is top quality Tupelo Honey™ as the bees make it and as skilled beekeepers produce it.

Fine Tupelo Honey™ is more expensive because it costs more to produce this excellent specialty honey. To gain access to the river locations where the honey is produced requires expensive labor and equipment. In order to get fine, unmixed Tupelo Honey™, colonies must be stripped of all spores just as the white Tupelo bloom begins. The bees must have clean combs in which to place the Tupelo honey. then the new crop must be removed before it can be mixed with additional honey sources. The timing of these operations is critical and years of experience are needed to produce a fine product that will certify as Tupelo honey.
