Some beekeepers believe that honey can be stored for one thousand years, provided that certain rules are followed.

Some people consider the refrigerator to be the ideal place for storage, since if the room temperature exceeds +35 degrees, the quality of the product will change.

It is noted that in winter honey can be placed on the balcony, as the product is resistant to frost and temperature changes.

It is also important to choose the right honey, which was produced in an apiary and not artificially.

How to choose honey correctly

If you do not want to open the jar, it is recommended to purchase the product from a trusted supplier - you should know for sure that he has an apiary.

If this is not possible, take a spoon, dip it into the contents and lift it up – high-quality honey will slowly flow down.

In other words, the consistency of the natural product will be thick and viscous.

In terms of taste and smell, quality honey will have a fragrant aroma and characteristic flavor.
