Organic Mountain Forest Honey
While this honey is USDA Organic, it is a multi-country blend (Brazil/Mexico), which is a red flag for industrial processing and a lack of specific hive-to-jar traceability. It lacks 'Raw' and 'Unfiltered' labeling, suggesting it has been heated and filtered for shelf stability, but it remains an excellent budget-friendly option for those seeking a pesticide-restricted organic sweetener.
