The best honey is local… wherever you are.

Maybe it’s just me, but non-local honey always tastes “off” or “processed” to me.
So for tupelo honey to taste the best to me, I guess I’d have to drive to Tupelo and taste it there.

Only grows in north Florida swamps as far as I know.

you think I've tasted every honey in the world?

I met a girl from Tupelo and the honey tasted funny.

That’s a closer drive for me then.
Sucks for Mississippi…can’t get credit for anything good.

I prefer Sourwood to Tupelo honey. I also like Manuka but it has gotten stupid expensive since people now consider it the pinnacle of honey superfood. My absolute favorite was from a farm in Vermont, but it has closed. I need to try to find some from the same area.

Tupelo honey can be harvested anywhere that Tupelo Gum Trees grow, that's usually swampy areas as far north as Tennessee. It's just a gimmicky name for Wildflower honey.
It's harvested from the spring bloom.
In North Alabama the next harvest used to be called Cotton honey and tasted a little different from Tupelo honey.
It's all good though.

Honey from bees that pollinate gardenias is the best. Imho

it is an indication that Mother Nature has a sense of humor that in many places in the south one non native species (the honeybee) has become dependent upon another non native species (the Chinese tallow) for food, and the tallow in return enjoys widespread pollination it might otherwise not get
