Mel de Portugal Wild Lavender Honey (Mel de Rosmaninho)

Rosmaninho honey sold under the Mel de Portugal label by Portugal Depot, a US shop for Portuguese groceries. Rosmaninho is the Portuguese name for wild lavender (Lavandula stoechas), and the seller says this honey is harvested from it in the Beira Baixa and Alentejo regions of Portugal. It has a light colour, a smooth texture and delicate floral notes with a subtle sweetness, an aromatic honey meant for everyday use. Spread it on toast or drizzle it over pancakes, pair it with fresh or soft cheeses, or use it to sweeten tea and herbal infusions.
