The honey is gathered as a liquid and naturally crystalizes to a smooth, creamy white with a texture that’s easy to spread like butter. White kiawe honey is sold as a raw honey. When any variety of honey crystalizes, it becomes cloudy and lighter, or almost white in color.

White honeys generally have a milder flavour as compared to darker honeys. Flowers that produce white honey include:

• Sage
• Alfalfa
• Fireweed
• White clover

White honey doesn’t exactly look white. Instead it’s a very light amber or an almost clear “water-white” color.
