There are more than 300 varieties of honey. They are distinguished by aroma, taste and color. Nutritionists and specialized publications explained what are the features of the most popular varieties and which one is better.
May honey is one of the natural types of honey, which is considered the most beneficial for health. It gets its name from the time it is collected by bees. Hard workers collect it from primroses and flowering fruit trees.
The collected product is transparent and minimally thick. Color varies from light greenish to amber.
The nectar matures into honey by removing excess moisture and converting sucrose into fructose and glucose. The smell of fresh sweets is practically absent.
The aroma of May herbs and flowers appears after the product has aged for about six months. In terms of cost, this type of honey is somewhat more expensive, since it has maximum healing and nutritional properties.
