Bill's Bees — Local Honey Tasting Flight

All five varietals in one box. The fastest way to learn that honey is not one flavor.

Five little glass bears in a windowed kraft gift box: orange blossom, buckwheat, wildflower, avocado blossom and sage blossom. Taste them darkest to lightest and the argument makes itself. The buckwheat is almost molasses. The sage is nearly butter. Same bees, different flowers, and that is the entire point of buying honey from a beekeeper instead of a factory. Every one is raw, unfiltered and never heated.

Makes an easy gift. Also makes converts. Most people come back for a full jar of whichever one surprised them.

Who this is for

• A hostess, teacher or coworker gift that is not a candle
• Anyone who has only ever had supermarket clover honey
• Deciding which varietal to buy by the pound before committing
• Kids, who love the bears and the tasting game
