Each class of flowers have a unique taste in honey. Just like the fragrance of smell. A Rose does not smell like a Tulip. A Tulip does not smell like a Marigold. If you combine all the different honeys together, then that is the taste most people who were raised on honey are accustomed to. Some honeys are sweeter than others. Some are smoother and do not have a strong lingering aftertaste. There are different shades, from dark to almost water clear, that are categorized as dark amber, light amber, and clear water white. Most of the honey in this area are dark and light amber. Tupelo is a light amber with a hint of green. Some of the clovers are almost water clear. As to why anyone would care what the difference in taste would be, You like Cappichino coffee. I do not. Therefore I would not buy Cappecheno. Hope this helps you explain to some of your friends.
