Flavor/taste is excellent. Even better than orange blossom honey (my favorite of all honey) I realize that this is an imported item, but I still find the price way to much for my budget. I decided to buy this once to satisfy my curiosity. I wish I could afford to repurchase honey and maybe try some of your other products.

This is my absolute favorite honey. I purchased a jar when I traveled to Scotland, and tried it after I got home to Hawaii. I'm very glad that I was able to purchase it through your store, although the cost to purchase in the US as well as the shipping to Hawaii made it a very expensive treat.

This honey pleased my daughter even before opening it. She remembered our trip to Scotland, including the Struan area because of our Robertson heritage, when she was a lass of fifteen. The honey itself is first rate!

Glads to get this. Order was quick, delivery prompt, and service excellent. I'm saving this for a Bobby BUrns Birthday party, the first I've hosted. So I'll be glad to write a product review later.

So tempting not to tell the world how exceptionally fabulous this is. You might order it all and have them run out. So much more flavourful than any other honey I've tried. A coup for Scottish Gourmet for finding it
