Tupelo honey, known as the 'champagne of honeys', is beloved for its unique flavor and velvety texture but commands a high price due to its limited availability.
The chief reason for tupelo honey's steep price is its exclusivity, as it is produced only from the Ogeechee tupelo gum tree found in specific Southern regions.
Due to the limited blooming season of the tupelo trees and the challenges of swamp beekeeping, the demand for tupelo honey consistently exceeds its supply.
The labor-intensive nature of swamp beekeeping, along with environmental factors like rain and high winds, greatly affects the production of this cherished honey.
