Buckwheat honey is a dark, rich honey made from the nectar of buckwheat flowers. It is known for its strong, robust flavor with earthy and malty undertones, often described as molasses-like. This type of honey is less sweet than traditional honey varieties and has a distinctive, slightly astringent taste. Buckwheat honey is highly nutritious, containing more antioxidants than lighter honey types. It is often used in baking, cooking, and as a natural remedy for coughs and sore throats due to its high nutrient content and antibacterial properties. Its dark color and intense flavor make it a unique addition to culinary dishes, providing depth and complexity.
