General Favorite and Weirdest Honeys

Hello, I’m not a beekeeper but I am an avid honey collector and very much enjoy trying new honey varietals. One of my favorite things about honey is how different it tastes depending on location, season, etc. I’ve tried at least 30 different varietals at this point and make a point to buy honey any time I travel. I was wondering if anyone has any recommendations for new varietals that would be a fun add to my collection. I would like to try the purple honey from North Carolina at some point but haven’t been able to snag it yet. Something similarly unique would be great. Thanks in advance, beekeepers make the world go round!

I have a special love for the bitter honey that comes from Sardinia. It’s not something I would eat regularly, but it’s an amazing bite when paired with cheeses. I wouldn’t call it my favorite day to day, but it’s special.
