Catskill Provisions, New York State
The Tastes: Catskill Provisions Raw Wildflower Spring Honey evokes the wildflowers of spring with floral notes of cherry and pear blossom, pairing well with cheese, yogurt, light teas, cocktails, and vinaigrettes. The Raw Wildflower Fall Honey is complex, with deep flavors of chestnut and maple, pairing perfectly with aged cheeses, chocolate, and in darker teas and cocktails. The lineup also includes Organic Pancake and Waffle Mix, New York Grade A Maple Syrup, and fall-honey-infused All-Natural Ketchup. Catskill Provisions Chocolate Honey Truffles provide sweet rewards from honey in the ganache and 72% dark chocolate.
The Story: When Claire Marin was a publishing executive, beekeeping was her hobby. Inspired by the collaborative and cooperative work of the bees, she left her publishing career to launch Catskill Provisions in 2010. Led by the pillars of integrity and authenticity, every Catskill Provisions product is a nod toward the greater good: contributing to environmental sustainability, fueling New York's local economies, and protecting pollinators. Today, Claire tends over 300 beehives in Upstate New York, working with local beekeepers to create small batch, hand-packed honey harvested twice annually in fall and spring. Join us in cheering her on as she becomes the fourth woman in the US to have a distillery where she'll continue making award-winning Honey Whiskey.
