THE SIXTH FESTIVAL OF BEEKEEPING - SUBOTICA 2002.

(the second part) 

 

HONEY DEGUSTATION

For the first time this year honey degustation was not organized according to producers but according to the kinds of honey. Six different sorts from this and last (linden) year’s production were exposed, and the degustators’ assignment was to evaluate the taste of honey which had its number (not labels). So, one day before presidential elections, the visitors of the festival voted for some sort of honey. The number of used spoons was 1137 and the results are the following:

                                                                                       1. Forest honey,

                                                                                       2. Linden,

                                                                                       3. Sunflower,

                                                                                     4-5. Locust,

                                                                                     4-5. Meadow,

                                                                                        6. Rape

Subotica beekeepers’ association will according to this year’s experience prepare a new kind of degustation for the next year with hopefully more sorts of honey.
