Buckwheat honey has a rich dark brown color. The darker the honey, the greater the content of antioxidants. Buckwheat honey is said to be the most nutritious honey found in the US, in terms of antioxidant content. The taste is delicious and reminds me of the taste of partially melted juggery. (Juggery is a healthful sugar substitute made from the honey of the flowers of palm trees.) Cashews dipped in this buckwheat honey is delicious. I can't find it locally, and IHerbs has fantastic price.

The honey is raw and must be good for health. But I can't get used to the smell which is strange unlike any other honeys that I tried. Anyway I didn't pay too much for it even if it is wasted. I might try to use it in some raw recipes where the smell is masked by other ingredients. Do not cook with any honey.

Gave one star because there is no lower version. Product tastes like urine to me, cannot eat it. Also, it is much lighter in color than it should be (dark amber), and has the consistency of peanut butter. Emailed iHerb about return, but they will only take back unopened jars, AND I have to pay for shipping. Very disappointed, and may reconsider ordering from them in the future.

Great honey, wonderful taste. But you must like Buckwheat honey to appreciate this taste.

I heard about buckwheat honey on Dr. OZ and bought some local honey for my son and grandson at a local health food store at a much higher price. Then I caught a cold, something that rarely happens to me. I bought this on iherb for a much better. I took just a tiny bit on the tip of a spoon and it took my sore throat away.I'm a diabetic and it doesn't seem to affect my blood sugars even when I take several tips of the spoon servings. The taste is wonderful and a bit addicting. There is no question that the antioxident properties helped me heal. I'm a fan.
