It has taken me several hours to clean up the extractor drum and the sieves. I didn't want to start bottling honey until I had clean work surfaces.

The honey is so thick it barely runs and it might be described as cloudy however some people refer to this thickness as creamy. Five jars filled and at least another five to fill. It tastes delicious and I'm looking forward to my first piece of sourdough toast thickly spread with my honey.

As you can see I've made special labels - Honey from the Pig Yard.
