    Great product

    British Borage Starflower Honey has a delicious, delicate and distinctive flavour, quite different from any honey I've tasted before. I love that it has other benefits too, which I hope to realise over time although they are not apparent to me yet. Great product, would recommend.

    Easy as dripping honey.

    This honey is a delight. Just watching it drip onto fruit and natural yogurt is pleasing. It tastes lightly sweet with a lovely tangy finish.

    Love this honey - a slightly different flavour from my usual but equally as good. Highly recommend it.
