Collected from perfumed Prosopis (mesquite) blooms that sweep across Mexico’s arid north each April-May, this single-floral honey captures desert spring in liquid form. Its Extra Light Amber hue glows pale gold—delicate enough for premium infusions yet warm enough to lend a sunlit tint to pastries and bottled beverages.
Subtle desert-floral flavor & quick, creamy crystallization
Aroma hints of soft wild-flowers and fresh straw after rain. Flavor is refined and understated—light caramel leads into faint vanilla-bean and almond notes, finishing clean and dry. A low fructose-to-glucose ratio means Mesquite Honey crystallizes sooner than many light honeys; it sets into fine, creamy granules that whip or spread like butter and dissolve instantly—ideal for creamed-honey lines and bakery fillings.
Pure, Raw & Unfiltered integrity
Frames leave the grove within 24 h of capping, are spun at ambient temperature and gravity-strained only—no pasteurization, no ultrafiltration. Live enzymes, pollen and subtle desert volatiles remain intact, delivering a clean-label ingredient certified RAW & Unfiltered.
