What's the code on my lid? Beekeepers mark their queens with a dab of colour that changes each year, using an international five-colour cycle: White (years ending 1 or 6), Yellow (2 or 7), Red (3 or 8), Green (4 or 9) and Blue (5 or 0). Our batch codes borrow the same idea. The letter is that year's colour, the next digit is the year, and the last four digits are the harvest day and month.
Label information: Product of England. Not suitable for infants under 12 months. Store at room temperature. Honey may naturally crystallise. Produced & packed by Brookfield Apiary, West End, Hampshire (full address on the jar label).
Set honey? Stand the jar in warm (not boiling, below 40°C) water to make it runny again. Never microwave it.
