Question 1

Question 3

If my honey crystallizes, can I still use it?"

Accepted Answer

Yes! All honey crystallizes with time. If honey has crystallized, it has not gone bad! The sign of crystallization is actually a good thing. Once honey is heated past 140, it slows down crystallization time dramatically but it also destroys beneficial properties in the process. If Smith's Pure Honey begins to crystallize, it is doing what it is naturally supposed to do.
 
To re-liquify honey, simply place the container in warm water for about 15 minutes. Once warmed, the honey will return to a liquid state. DO NOT MICROWAVE HONEY!

Question 4

How is Smith's Pure Honey different from big box store honey?

Accepted Answer

Smith's Pure Honey is a wildflower honey made by bees belonging to the Smith Family. Our honey's distinctive flavor comes from native wildflower nectar foraged by our bees. Unlike big box store honey, our honey is not highly processed, filtered, and over-heated. These processes can remove many of the beneficial components of honey.

Question 5

Where does Smith's Pure Honey come from?

Accepted Answer

We only use honey that comes straight from our own hives located in Mississippi. By doing so, we eliminate multiple unknowns of where the honey originated from and the processes the honey has undergone. We maintain complete control from the time honey is harvested from our hives to the bottle you purchase, and it is a promise we will continue to keep!
