Is ths 100% pure honey?

YES! It never separates out with sugary crystals. So smooth and tasty. I use in on pancakes and always in my coffee or tea!

Yes - and no. It is ultra-filtered, which means many of the components that go into honey, such as pollen, are removed. What remains is still honey - hopefully, I'll get into that. However, there is a moderate body of evidence that ultra-filtering it, and often high temperature processing - to force the honey through the filter - definitely reduce how healthy honey is. One of the reasons for ultra-filtering is because it increases the shelf life until it crystallizes. Think of Twinkies - they never go bad. The convenience factor is increased, and the store doesn't have to throw it out because it's "bad" - which is actually the opposite. One of the telltale signs of raw and minimally pasteurized honey is the fact it will crystallize. When you have ultra-filtered honey and you have removed the pollen, it is very difficult to identify the country of origin, or if the honey has had sugar fillers added. That's why the FDA standards specify (or at least they used to) that honey, to be labeled as such, requires the presence of pollen. Simply google "Adulterated honey" and add China or India. You will see there have been several massive US and Canadian prosecutions over outright fraud and relabeling of adulterated or contaminated honey from overseas.

well it doesn't actually state that on the label it says: select golden honey clover U.S. Grade A, It's good honey this is my 3rd purchase

There's nothing to indicate otherwise on the bottle. It's not raw though and I assume it's been pasteurized -- it takes a long time for it to crystallize. But you can tell they haven't strained out the pollens, like the stuff from China does, from the taste.

According to its prescription, it is pure. I can't really tell if there are impurities as I've never tried other brands before.

I believe it is, as I am an advanced analytical chemist and use this product. To the best of my labs capability, i got 99.6433% purity. Thats good enough for ANYTHING.

I suggest you contact the company and ask them these questions. All I can tell you is what's on the bottle. On the bottle it says "Since 1973 we've partnered with local beekeepers to bring you the finest pure raw honey." " We only use low temperature melting and simple straining to maintain all the pollens, enzymes, vitamins and minerals that overheating and force-filtering destroy." On the front it says" raw & gently filtered". I've been using this honey for years and love the flavor. If you're looking for the company's definition of these specific words you'll have to ask them.

I do not know for certain, but it seems to be pure DE. And the price is great for the amount you get. I believe I mentioned in my review that is seems moist, and slightly pale yellow, which I surmised indicated a raw and natural product. I would recommend asking the seller about the purity question. I found it acceptable, but you should make yourself comfortable about any questions prior to purchase.

It says 100% pure but not organic on the package. I am very pleased with the product which comes from Paraguay, not China. I would suggest you contact the company directly--they are very responsive. steviaselect@outlook.com

The label indicates that the bottle contains 100% pure maple syrup free from artificial flavorings, preservatives or dyes. I have been using this brand for 3 years and am satisfied with the product. I would recommend you try it.

Don't know. The last time I purchased this type of product, it was Granulated Honey (refinery syrup 7 honey). Always check the ingredients.

It says on the jar, "unpasteurized, unprocessed, raw state." It is very delicious and I think the best honey I've ever had.

Hi! You are correct, even the Package states 100% pure. I do not know who, in particular wrote that specific description, but is obviously a typo. :)

It does not say certified. The bottle says low temperature melting and simple straining. We have purchased for several years and are very happy with this honey.

Hi Samantha. So far, every one of their honey products I have purchased, has been raw. Most of the labels say raw, unpasteurized, unfiltered. I hope this helps you.

Sorry, I cannot answer that question, email Stakich directly. All I can say is that it is the best raw honey you will ever find.

No I do not know, but what I do know is that it is not what is claims to be, which is 100% pure. Having tasted pure Stevia, this is a poor imitation. It has fillers in it, but just what they are is unknown.

I believe their labeling which says it is pure. It has a different texture than sucrose and melts at a slightly lower temperature. It is delicious!

What you're looking for is the Non-Peroxide Activity (NPA) rating.This honey doesn't seem to carry a UMF/NPA rating so the "Active 16+" could mean anything, or nothing. At this price you can be pretty sure it's not proper UMF honey.

This honey used to be guaranteed to be "From Colorado's Western Slope, Raw and Unfiltered". Not anymore. Ever since the company was acquired by Madhava Natural Sweeteners the honey has been guaranteed to be "100% pure USA honey" and it is now "Raw and Gently Filtered". That may be just fine for many customers...but I much preferred the honey when it was guaranteed to be from hives on the western slops of the Rockies and was unfiltered. I now seek out local farmer markets honey when I am in Colorado and northern New Mexico, if the beekeeper can give me more guarantees about the source of the honey and its minimal processing.
