Judged by the Guild of Fine Food’s expert panel, Anglesey Bees has been awarded multiple Great Taste awards for its Anglesey Wildflower Honey in the world’s most trusted food and drink accreditation scheme.
What are The Great Taste Awards?
Recognised as a stamp of excellence and actively sought out by food lovers and retailers alike, Great Taste, organised by the Guild of Fine Food, values taste above all else. All products in the line-up for judging are blind-tasted - every product is removed from its packaging so it cannot be identified, before entering a robust, layered judging process.
Our Summer Wildflower honey gained a one-star award. The adjudicators described it as:-
"very delicate in flavour, bright and appealing, with a real blast of the hedgerow in the aroma" and “a honey we would enjoy on our toast",
Only 1500 products were awarded a two-star award and deemed to be "above and beyond delicious" out of over 14,000 entries world-wide. The judging panels described Anglesey Bees' Spring Wildflower honey as:-
"An aroma of caramel lifted from this rich, viscous, amber honey. This a delightfully floral honey with a light astringency on the palate suggesting the bees may have been foraging on tree flowers."
"There were the most delicious wafts of sun warmed woody notes. The burst of floral vanilla that initially filled the mouth followed by fruity musky notes with a savoury edge. This clever honey works in harmony on the palate to allow a burst of spring."
"Wonderful amber colour with excellent viscosity and an enticing floral hit on the nose. A smooth texture coats the mouth with the delicate sweet flavour rich with floral clean notes singing of the environment these bees have been working."
