Taste the Seasons of Iowa

Not all honey is created equal. At Lost Branch Apiaries, the bees work hard through the changing seasons to bring you four distinct flavor profiles:

Locust (Late Spring Harvest): Clear as water and delicate as a spring morning. Locust honey is prized for its light, almost transparent appearance and gentle sweetness with soft vanilla and floral notes. It’s one of the mildest honeys you’ll find — so clean it won’t overpower your tea or coffee, yet complex enough to enjoy by the spoonful. Pairs beautifully with fresh fruit, yogurt, soft cheeses, and light pastries.

Clover (Summer Harvest): The gold standard of honey. Light, crisp, and delicately sweet. It’s the perfect all-purpose sweetener for coffee, tea, and fresh fruit.

Aster (Fall Harvest): As the air turns crisp, the bees visit wild asters to create this full-bodied nectar. Known for its quick crystallization and creamy texture, it pairs beautifully with warm biscuits and oatmeal.

Knotweed (Late Season): For those who love bold flavors. This dark, amber honey offers a savory sweetness similar to molasses or caramel. Rich in antioxidants, it stands up well in marinades, heavy breads, and artisan cheese boards.
