Mountain Ridge Honey, Pure Raw Organic Honey, 22 Ounces

The honey arrived on time and was well packed. It has a beautiful rich dark color. A thick consistency and it tastes delicious. I'm using it in my herbal tea as I write this. Thank you so much.

I've bought more and given a jar as a gift to my sister, as it's some of the best-tasting raw honey I've had. It sweetens hot tea wonderfully, and it doesn't sugar as fast as most raw honeys, which is plus to me.

The honey is lovely. It's kinda thick, dark and to me a slightly smokey taste. Not as sweet as other honey I've used. The packaging isn't what I thought it would be. I tried this product because it appears to be in a glass Mason jar. The jar and lid are actually plastic. The lid got bent and the honey leaked all over the inside of the big envelope it arrived in. The other item in the package got covered in honey also. Pretty messy.

My FAVORITE Honey! I even ordered it when I’m in New Jersey. I’m able to get this honey in my local grocery store, but for some reason they were out and I only had 2 teaspoons of it left for my coffee so I had to order it through Amazon. It’s really the only honey that I will have with my coffee it’s just so delicious And it actually helps with my allergies.

Deceptive for TWO reasons: First, I bought this because I was familiar with Mountain Ridge as a North Carolina company (where I live). Also because it appeared to be in a GLASS MASON JAR -- It is not glass but PLASTIC with MASON embossed on the plastic. I searched online to see if I could find plastic mason jars and I could not. I do not buy honey in plastic. This container was labeled "1" meaning: #1 – PET or PETE (polyethylene terephthalate) - PET is used for water and soft drink bottles, mouthwash bottles, containers for condiments like nut butters and ketchup, and TV dinner trays. It is usually downcycled into carpet fibers, fleece jackets, and sometimes new containers. PET is considered safe, but evidence shows it can actually leach the toxic metal antimony, which is used during its manufacture. One study looked at 63 brands of bottled water produced in Europe and Canada and found concentrations of antimony that were more than 100 times the typical level found in clean groundwater (2 parts per trillion). The study also found that the longer a PET bottle sits on the shelf—in a grocery store or in your pantry—the greater the amount of antimony present. It is also thought that the amount of antimony leaching from these PET bottles increases the more they are exposed to sunlight and heat.Brominated compounds have also been found to leach into PET bottles. Bromine displaces iodine in the body, and is a central nervous system depressant. It can accumulate over time, and trigger health problems.

The answer is, I would not have bought this product if those things were known to me from the listing. So DECEPTIVE PRACTICE. I will write about this on Facebook as well to let all my NC readers know. How sad that what was once a fine company would resort to such despicable underhanded practices.

Very pleasent taste

The honey came as a mess, leaking inside the box.

I've bought this a few times. Always consistent. Always delicious. And remarkably it doesn't turn to sugar like so much honey does.
