Herbalist's ✿ Notes

about the botanicals

Close-up of white elderflowers in full bloom with green leaves on a blurred background

Sambucus spp.

elderflower

Elder blooms in early summer in lacy cream clusters that smell of honey and muscat grapes, ready for cordials, syrups, and tea. Native peoples hollowed the stems of our American elder (S. canadensis) into flutes, whistles, and taps for gathering maple syrup.

Ganoderma lingzhi

reishi

Reishi is a glossy, lacquer-red shelf mushroom that recycles dead wood. Too tough to eat whole, it has long been simmered into tea, and its bitterness comes from triterpenes, which is why honey is a natural partner. In the Southern Appalachians, its native cousin, hemlock reishi (G. tsugae), grows on eastern hemlock stumps and logs.

OLD WORLD WISDOM MEETS THE MODERN PANTRY

meet our herbal honey (or electuary)

So much more than just infused.

An electuary (finely ground herbs and spices stirred into honey) is an old apothecary preparation. Think matcha versus a cup of green tea: with matcha, as with our honeys, the whole ground plant stays in the jar. Expect a thick-ish, velvety, spoonable texture with a flavor that deepens as it sits.

FAQs

How do I use an herbal electuary?

First, give it a stir. Then, in our world of food-forward herbalism, we use herbal honeys in two ways: 

  • By the spoonful: for a sweet, nourishing treat
  • Anywhere you'd use honey: stirred into tea or coffee, drizzled over yogurt or fruit, spread on buttered toast, whisked into dressings and marinades

What does Elder Sage Herbal Honey pair well with?

Elder Sage pairs oh-so well with:

  • Black coffee or espresso
  • A cheese board
  • Bone broth
  • Miso dressings, sauces, marinades
  • Sage cornbread and honey butter

How long does it last?

We recommend using our herbal honeys within 6 months after opening.

Why has my herbal honey thickened or solidified?

Herbal honeys can naturally thicken or firm up over time, especially in cooler environments, much like raw honey crystallizing. This is completely normal and doesn't affect safety or flavor. If you'd like it softer, set the jar in a shallow bowl of warm water for a few minutes or microwave uncovered for no more than 5-10 seconds.
