An other thing, I remember was that if honey "candied" it was impure honey, and I can't remember what caused it to "candy". It appears that pure honey will mainintain its liquid form for years.

Buckwheat honey seems to stay liquid for a long time. I still have some left in a jar that I bought more than a year ago that is still liquid. It is not refrigerated although the HFS where I bought it kept it in a cooler.

From memory again, "runny honey" can mean too much moisture in it, but

having said that, some varieties of plants do produce a less viscous honey, we have a eucalypt tree over here and its called Yellow Box, the honey off that particular tree I remember Dad would almost kill for, and it was very stiff when cold.

I was told the other day that all the honey you get in the supermarket is pasteurized, unless you get something labelled "raw" honey. Happily for me I am able from time to time to get some honey direct from the producer. The heated honey tends not to solidify, so if I'm somewhere buying supposedly unprocessed honey and I notice one is "turning" solid, I tend to go for that as an indication that it has not been overheated. Gently warming to get it
flowing to put in pots is different.

Dad was a fanatic regarding the production of honey, he never heated it
above a certain temperature, if overheated it would destroy the enzymes in it, and the exact figure I can't remember, but he could look at honey and
tell you whether it had been overheated.
