Description Pure Irish ivy honey. This is a 240g jar of our pure Irish ivy honey from our December harvest. Ivy honey is a special late-season honey from the autumn-flowering common ivy, known for its strong, herbal almost medicinal flavour and creamy texture. Its use as a traditional remedy for coughs and respiratory issues is well documented. It is rich in pollen and compounds such as  hederacoside C and saponins, it is highly valued for soothing sore throats, coughs, and respiratory issues. Our Irish ivy honey is raw, unheated and has a beautiful attractive aroma. This is raw honey, direct from our beehives in Dublin, churned to a creamy texture to facilitate use.   Fresh honey from nature directly to you with minimal filtering, retaining all the natural goodness from the hive. Local Irish ivy honey from your local beekeeper We manage our hives sustainably, only removing the surplus honey at the end of the season. We always leave enough honey for the bees to have food during the times when there may not be anything to forage on or the weather may be too cold to leave the hive. Pure honey may crystallize or granulate after time. This is a natural occurrence and in fact a proof that it is indeed pure unadulterated honey. You can gently heat it to return it to its liquid state.   https://dublinhoneykillester.ie/product-category/pure-irish-honey/
