Why is White Raw Honey white?

The honey harvested from Espalset flowers is white and opaque, but like clear honey, it retains a smooth liquid consistency.

In fact, the reason honey turns white is because the glucose contained in it crystallizes. This is an inherent characteristic of honey, and is caused by external stimuli such as temperature and vibration. Also, the likelihood of crystallization varies depending on the components in the nectar. Espalset nectar is also translucent when first brewed, and gradually turns white over time.

However, in the case of S-Palset, the crystals are so small that they do not solidify and remain liquid. S-Palset White Raw Honey is a honey that achieves a delicate balance, remaining liquid while approaching a solid state. When regular honey solidifies and turns white, it becomes hard and rough to the touch, but this honey maintains its smoothness even after it turns white, making it delicious to enjoy.
