Honey Tasting · October 16, 2027 · Biloxi, Mississippi
The Mississippi Gulf Coast Artisan Honey & Seafood Pairing celebrates the rare tallow tree, gallberry, and coastal wildflower honeys produced along the Gulf Coast, pairing them with the region’s celebrated fresh seafood in a unique culinary exploration. Held at the Gulf Coast Seafood Festival grounds in Biloxi, the event pairs local honeys with Gulf shrimp, oysters, and blue crab in chef-guided tasting flights that highlight honey’s natural affinity for briny coastal flavors. Mississippi beekeepers from Harrison, Hancock, and Jackson counties present their coastal hive management techniques, and the Mississippi Beekeepers Association hosts a honey show with categories for tallow tree, gallberry, and mixed wildflower varieties unique to the Gulf Coast ecosystem.
