Orange Blossom Honey

Orange Blossom Honey – Premium Honey for Mead Making

Delicate Citrus Aroma and Floral Sweetness for Exceptional Meads

Our Orange Blossom Honey is a top-tier choice for homebrewers and mead makers looking to craft clean, aromatic, and delicately floral meads. Sourced from bees foraging on blooming orange groves, this honey is light amber in color with a gentle citrus blossom character and a sweet, smooth finish. It ferments beautifully and remains one of the most popular varietals for traditional meads, melomels, and braggots.

This varietal is known for being highly fermentable while contributing subtle flavors and aromatics that linger pleasantly on the palate. Orange Blossom Honey is ideal for both beginners and experienced mead makers looking for a refined, consistent base that plays well with fruit additions, spices, or stands strong on its own.

Product Highlights:

• Clean Flavor Profile: Light and floral with soft citrus notes
• Highly Fermentable: Produces clean, crisp, well-attenuated meads
• Balanced Aroma: Fragrant orange blossom aroma without overpowering the palate
• Versatile Use: Perfect for traditional meads, melomels, braggots, and even baking or culinary use
• Available Sizes: 3 lb and 6 lb jugs, conveniently sized for 1-gallon and 5-gallon batches

How to Use:

For a 1-gallon batch of traditional mead, use approximately 2.5 - 3 lbs of Orange Blossom Honey. For 5-gallon batches, plan for 12 - 15 lbs depending on the desired starting gravity and final alcohol content. Always mix thoroughly with water and add nutrients such as Fermaid O or Fermax to support healthy fermentation. This honey dissolves easily at room temperature, but can also be gently warmed in a water bath if needed.

Why Choose Orange Blossom Honey for Mead:

• Clean fermentation and high attenuation potential
• Subtle floral and citrus complexity adds character to meads
• Light enough to showcase fruit, spice, or barrel additions
• Ideal for traditional, session, and sparkling meads

Whether you're crafting your first mead or dialing in a competition-worthy recipe, this honey provides the clarity and flavor balance needed for an exceptional result.
