Reading a Honey Label Like a Beekeeper

'Pure' legally just means nothing's been added — it says nothing about heat or filtering.

'Raw' means it hasn't been heated above hive temperature, which keeps the natural enzymes and pollen intact. 'Unfiltered' means it still has bits of wax and pollen in it, which is also why it crystallizes faster.

If a honey pours like syrup in winter and never clouds, it's worth asking what's been done to it.
