Flavor Profile

Sumava has repeatedly won COE awards, and its red honey process is legendary. The profile features red apple, pear, and honey sweetness with a silky texture and a hint of cinnamon and nuts on the finish.

Processing Highlights

Red honey preserves 50-75% of the mucilage and avoids direct sunlight during drying, creating a sweetness that is heavier than yellow honey but cleaner than black honey.
