Coromandel Pohutukawa Honey 160g/5.6oz net. The Pohutukawa (Metsiderosis excelsa) is one of New Zealands favorite and most well-known native trees that cling to the coastlines of New Zealand. Each summer the trees break into bloom covered in masses of brilliant crimson flowers, peaking in December, hence giving the tree its name as New Zealands Christmas Tree. Honeybees feast on this brilliant color palette. The flowering of the Pohutukawa is very erratic making Pohutukawa honey very challenging to collect and a very rare treat. Coromandel Pohutukawa honey is collected from hives nestled in remote coastal corners of the beautiful Coromandel peninsula. Coromandel Pohutukawa Honey is a pale golden color. It is well-balanced, lightly floral and sweeter than your average Pohutukawa honey. A honey of outstanding quality, the flavor is clean, earthy and resembles sweet butterscotch. A good all round cooking honey adding honey sweetness without overpowering food. It is perfect for melting into sauces. Pair with nutty cheeses such as Emmental and Gruyere or mild Havarti.
