Liquid lime honey is light yellow in color, sometimes amber with a greenish tinge, and its smell resembles linden flowers.
The taste of linden honey is somewhat spicy, sometimes with a slight bitterness.
The substances contained in linden flowers, carried by bees to linden honey, have an expectorant effect, which is desirable in the case of lower and upper respiratory tract infections.
Also in the case of a cold or flu, linden honey is recommended because of its diaphoretic effect.
