Although there are more than 300 varieties of honey found in the United States, most of the honey sold is a blend or one of the more common varieties. Each variety of honey has a distinct color and flavor. In general, light-colored honeys offer mild, sweet flavor, while darker honeys offer bolder, more vibrant flavor. These are but a few of the honey varieties available.
