Intro
High-meadow honey is a moving target—temperature, bloom, and wind shape it hourly. We measure purity gently: moisture %, pollen atlas, and conductivity.
Why moisture matters
Below 18% preserves enzymes and deters fermentation. We rely on refractometers and patient evaporation—never heat.
Pollen atlas
Dominant grains—thyme, clover, sainfoin—tell a seasonal story. A 40–60% wildflower signature is typical at the ridge.
Finish
Sweetness is the entry; florality and herbs are the chorus; altitude provides the clean finish.
