Tupelo is touted as the best honey in America. Named as the “Queen of Honey,” or “Southern Gold,” Tupelo honey is a premium honey. Bees will visit the blossoms of the white Tupelo gum tree, in the Apalachicola Basin, 3 weeks or less per year. The weather and the endangered ecosystem provide only a short window to harvest this extraordinary honey.
