Source Plant & Botanical Notes

• Botanical name: Persea americana (avocado).

• Blossom biology: Each creamy-yellow flower opens twice—first as a pollen-receptive pistillate bloom, then about 24 h later as a pollen-releasing staminate bloom—preventing self-fertilization and giving bees extended, nectar-rich foraging windows. A mature tree can present up to one million blossoms in a single season, ensuring abundant, consistent nectar flow and the honey’s signature depth.

Color

Deep, lustrous dark-amber to mahogany, a visual cue to its concentrated mineral and antioxidant content.

Aroma & Flavor

Bold and layered: think toffee, cocoa husk, and light smoke, finished with a silky butter note and whispers of dried fig. Complex yet balanced—ideal when you need sweetness that also brings character.

Texture & Crystallization

A naturally high fructose-to-glucose ratio keeps Avocado Honey fluid for months. When it eventually sets, it forms a fine, creamy grain that melts instantly on the palate.

Nutrition Highlights

Dark color = dense nutrition. Typical electrical conductivity of 0.8 – 1.2 mS cm⁻¹ signals elevated potassium, magnesium, iron, manganese, and polyphenolic antioxidants—up to three-plus times that of light honeys.

Culinary Pairings & Uses

• Savory: Brush over roasted root vegetables, grilled salmon, or pork ribs; whisk into balsamic or soy-based marinades.

• Sweet: Swap for molasses in gingerbread, fold into dark-chocolate ganache, or drizzle over vanilla-bean ice cream.

• Beverages: Sweeten espresso, cold-brew coffee, bourbon-or-mezcal cocktails, or stout beer reductions.

• Cheese & Charcuterie: Complements aged Gouda, blue cheeses, and dry-cured meats.

Why Choose Avocado Honey?

For chefs, formulators, and honey lovers who want depth, nutrition, and drama in a single pour. Its robust profile elevates both sweet and savory creations while delivering a natural boost of minerals and antioxidants.

Raw & Unfiltered Integrity

Gravity-strained only—never heated, never micro-filtered—so all native enzymes, pollens, and phytochemical antioxidants remain intact unless you request otherwise.
