the honey, what type of honey was it?

They had honey labeled for every flowering plant that grows in Hawaii. Macademian nut was one of the favorites but most of the names i can't say. Sorry.

thanks bama, did you purchase any?

Yes, we did. we bought 4 different types:

Lehua & Cinnamon which is a white cream honey with cinnamon mixed thru-out. Very good.

Wilelaiki Blossum honey which is a light gold colored honey and much like my crimson clover honey. Very sweet.

Ohi'a Lehua Blossum honey which is a little darker than the creamed honey above. Not as sweet as I prefer.

Macadamia Nut Blossum honey which tastes like macadamia nuts.

Spam flavored macadamia nuts?  Did you try any of those?

Gypsi, we did try the Spam flavored nuts. They have samples of almost everything they sell for you to try. I almost spoiled my dinner by sampling so much stuff. The Spam flavored nuts were my least favorite and the only type that I couldn't have identified as "Spam" nuts.  All the other various flavors were identifiable.

I really liked the Lehua & Cinnamon. The cinnamon is a nice addition to the cream honey. I may try that with some of mine.
