Sue Bee Midwest Raw & Unfiltered Honey — 24 oz Jar, Strained for Natural Pollen and Flavor

Sue Bee Local Midwest Honey is a raw, unfiltered 24-ounce jar of regional, beekeeper-co-op honey from the Midwest, strained (not finely filtered) to retain natural pollen and flavor.

This jar holds pure Grade A honey gathered by independent members of the Sioux Honey Association co-op, offering a regional taste of Midwestern blooms. It’s made from a single ingredient—honey—and processed with minimal handling to preserve the texture, aroma, and pollen particles that give local honey its character. Packaged in the USA, this product follows a long family-driven tradition dating back to the 1920s and is intended for everyday use as a sweetener, a cooking ingredient, or a pantry staple.

What makes this Sue Bee honey "raw" and "unfiltered"?

Raw indicates the honey has not undergone high-heat pasteurization; unfiltered here means it is strained rather than micro-filtered, so more natural pollen and tiny wax particles remain. These handling choices help keep aroma and flavor closer to what the bees collected from local Midwestern plants.

• Strained, not finely filtered—retains more pollen and natural texture.
• Not subjected to high-temperature pasteurization that alters flavor.
• Single-ingredient formulation: pure honey with no additives.
• Collected by the Sioux Honey Association beekeepers for regional consistency.

How can I use this regional honey in everyday cooking?

Midwest Sue Bee honey works as a direct substitute for refined sugar or syrup in many recipes, adding nuanced floral sweetness and moisture. It pairs well with beverages, baked goods, dressings, marinades, and cheese boards where a touch of local character elevates the dish.

• Stir into hot or iced tea as a natural sweetener.
• Brush on roasted vegetables or meats for glazing.
• Drizzle over yogurt, oatmeal, or fresh fruit for breakfast.
• Use in baking to retain moisture and add floral notes.

How is quality ensured for this beekeeper-owned product?

Sue Bee honey is sourced from a cooperative of independent beekeepers who follow grading and sampling procedures to meet Grade A standards. The brand traces its cooperative roots back decades, and each batch is evaluated for clarity, floral type, flavor, moisture content, and color before distribution.

• Harvested by Sioux Honey Association co-op members across the Midwest.
• Grade A grading process for consistent shelf-ready quality.
• Established brand practices since the early 20th century for product oversight.
• Straining preserves natural components while removing large debris.

How should I store and measure this 24-ounce jar?

Keep the jar sealed at room temperature away from direct sunlight to maintain texture and flavor; honey naturally thickens or crystallizes over time but remains safe to eat. If it crystallizes, gentle warming in a warm water bath will restore a pourable consistency without overheating.

• Store in a cool, dry cupboard—avoid heat and sunlight.
• Crystallization is natural; warm jar gently to re-liquefy.
• 24 ounces provides multiple weeks to months of use depending on frequency.
• Use clean utensils to prevent contamination and extend freshness.

Who is this for? Sue Bee Local Midwest Honey suits home cooks, tea drinkers, and anyone who prefers a minimally processed, regionally sourced sweetener with a recognizable floral profile. It’s a practical choice for shoppers who value beekeeper-supported sourcing and a straightforward ingredient list, as well as for people who enjoy pairing local honey with cheeses, baked goods, or beverages to highlight Midwestern floral notes.
