Buckwheat is a plant grown for its grain-like seeds and used as a cover crop. Interestingly, buckwheat is not related to wheat, but to sorrel and rhubarb. The seeds produced by the plant are rich in complex carbohydrates (72%) and loaded with important vitamins and minerals.
Cold Creek Bee Buckwheat Honey will be a welcomed addition to your overall Cold Creek Bee honey collection. Because of its complex flavor, it’s excellent for use on pancakes or other baked goods where you want the honey taste to come through the other ingredients.
Pleasant hay-like, earthy smell. Malty, rich, molasses flavor that is not over-sweet.
