Sweet clover is about the best. N the north.

Bigblackbird sents me several different honeys a year. He numbers them and I report back which I like best. Never remember what it is but he always sends me great stuff. Me and the kids always seem to like different ones.

Either a very dark clover honey, or an almost clear basswood honey.

Straight star thistle not the crap they sell from cali. Its fluorescent green in color. When I had bees I would take 40 hives over towards the coast and make black berry honey. I would end up with close to three barrels , it always sold out first. It went real good on chicken and pork.

It’s funny how everyone’s taste for honey is different. A co-worker and I went to a place in near Corvallis, Oregon where they had many types of honey and tasted several. My favorite was meadowfoam. I forgot what her favorite was but I remember I didn’t care for it and she didn’t like the meadowfoam.
