Greek Honey in Cork

Anyone know where I could pick some up in Cork?

Best Bet would be the English Market, have a snoop around to see if anybody is selling anything like that, if not its always worth to ask some traders in there

That's a rather small minded view. But to answer the question I haven't yet found a "home grown" product to match the consistency,taste and or quality of many of the even "cheap" Greek brands that you find in a super market in Greece.

I don't buy Irish for the sake of buying Irish. If an Irish product is of good quality, matches what I want to actually buy and is reasonably priced I'll buy Irish. I want my food to taste nice, not bland with an Irish football jersey on it.

There are plenty of good quality products available directly here from the local beekeeper and I am not talking about the shop processed stuff passed off as Irish honey blended with some Chinese golden syrup.

Have you tried heather honey , creamed honey from oilseed rape , whitethorn is a medium honey full of flavour and aroma, the flow in mid July is a blackberry clover mix.

The local beekeeper in your area , could have bees in any of the locations that produce those types of honey . Have you asked him & tried them all out .

I guess the problem we're having solargrain is you seem to have misread the thread title.

I'm not looking for Irish honey from a local bee keeper, because I know where to find that.

What I can't find is Greek honey.

There is an online shop with greek products http://www.greekshopdublin.com/product/honey-thyme-227g . Attiki honey is very tasty while being one of the most common greek honey.
