Honey in Oman

Other Locations

The three basic categories of honey are:

1. Single origin

Nectar mainly comes from one specific plant –such as clover, for example.

2. Multi-flower

Nectar that the bees collect comes from different plants. The resulting varieties can vary a lot in flavor and appearance, such as wildflower types.

3. Local

Nectar is collected from a specific region or territory, such as a special mountain area or the California coastline.

These include clover and acacia, as well as any wildflower varieties. The bees find the required nectar in the blossoms.

Depending on how the nectar is collected, you will find single origin and multi-flower varieties in this group.
