Yes it's true... eucalyptus honey may grow on you about as fast as the eucalyptus tree grows and it's one of the fastest growing trees in the world! When you become more aware of the unique nature of this plant and the nectar the honey bees collect from these exquisite flowers you will appreciate the value of this honey more deeply. You may decide to simply enjoy it for its topical skin uses or discover that the medicinal or camphor like tones in the flavor can be a compliment to your black herbal teas and not something to avoid... at least not in all cases. Eucalyptus leaves can be steam distilled to extract the oil that is then used in many pharmaceutical, antiseptic, repellent, flavoring, fragrance, and industrial uses. Eucalyptus oil contains up to 90% eucalyptol compounds... an organic ether compound that gives this essential oil many of its unique and healthy characteristics. These characteristics include an antiseptic effect and soothing menthol like vapor making it popular in many personal hygiene products... imparting a fresh and clean taste, aroma, and feel! Eucalyptus honey naturally has traces of eucalyptol compounds that have been carried in the nectar by the honey bee from the flower to hive. The slight menthol or camphor like experience that some people dislike in this honey is a result of eucalyptol compounds found in the eucalyptus nectar. However... hints of this compound in the honey are also what give this honey a unique health edge over the benefits of many other honey varieties. There are so many species of eucalyptus worldwide that flavor, aroma, and texture of this honey experience can vary a ton. You may even find a honey within the eucalyptus family named specifically for the type of tree it was collected from such as... Jarrah, Blue Gum, Spotted Gum, or Iron Bark Eucalyptus.
