Another Great Taste Award to add to the list!
1 August 2022
We are delighted to announce that this year we put our Carmarthenshire Meadow Wildflower Honey in front of the Great Taste Award judges again earlier this year…and we won a 1* with the results announced this week!
The Awards, based purely on merit of flavour is simple – no marketing, not knowing any names or brands, just a small cup with our honey for the many judges who need to agree on the award.
The awards come in three ratings, 1*, 2* and 3*. Very very few foods get the 3*, and no one in Wales has won that for their Welsh honey ever.
A small select few receive 2* (which we have!) where it must come under the confines of “above and beyond delicious” with fewer than 10% of entries receiving this across all product ranges. Out of 10 2* winners across the UK last year for honey we were the only ones that had 2* for Welsh honey, and we had 2 of them for our Brecon Beacons Uplands Wildflower and Gower Saltmarsh Wildflower honey.
The 1* is described as “a food that delivers fantastic flavour” with fewer than 25% of entries achieving this.
So, overall, that means a lot of entries do not get anything at all! That is why we are very pleased that our Carmarthenshire Meadow Wildflower Honey had won a 1* this year.
