@Motodrachen But this isn't honey? I can't see it having near the shelf stable properties, much less how it'd differ in flavor, even more so if you contrast it with mono-flower honeys and wildflower honey

@Motodrachen How well did it keep in containers of it that hadn't been sterilized?

@IrisKalmia Reasonably well in the fridge, like any Syrup.

I mean we did bring it to a boil and jar it Hot. The stuff we canned properly lasted for months.

@Motodrachen So it's reaaaalllllly lacking on the shelfstability compared to the real deal?

I don't refrigerate honey and sure as hell don't break out the pressure canner every time I open the jar <3

Though that would help keep it from crystalizing, hmm.
