[Fukuoka Prefecture, Kitakyushu City] A honey specialty store located in Mojiko Retro on December 8, 2018 (Saturday). The location is... Exit Mojiko Port Station and walk to the right side of the Western-style building (Mitsui Club) in front of you. You will see a bright brick-colored building "Kaikyo Plaza" along with the sea, so it's on the 1st floor of that building. A 3-minute walk from JR Mojiko Port Station. No regular holidays. Visited based on the recommendation of a companion who bought incredibly delicious honey here a few years ago. The main store is located in Yufuin, Oita Prefecture. Inside the store, honey products from various countries are lined up. Clover, acacia, eucalyptus, buckwheat honey. Coffee honey, orange honey, apple honey, mandarin honey, raspberry honey, blueberry honey. Manuka honey, honey with lemon juice, honey with pomegranate juice, and more. Not only food but also beauty products such as soap and lip balm. Although it may be difficult to imagine the taste just by looking, you can sample with a spoon to discover your favorite flavor. The store's commitment is to "100% pure honey." This means that they do not use cheap syrup to bulk up the honey or feed the bees with sugar water to make fake honey. The prices are high, but the flavor is excellent and it seems to have health benefits. Pure honey has no expiration date. Due to its purity, the quality is maintained for an extremely long period. It is said to have antibacterial properties, and licking it when you have a cold can help you recover faster. There are also casual dining options available. The seating capacity is 25 seats, all non-smoking. [Soft] Honey soft serve, honey drizzle soft serve, coffee jelly soft serve [Light meal] Honey melon bread, honey pancake [Drink] Honey apple juice, Vienna coffee, black tea All sweetened with "100% pure honey." ------------------------------------------------ ■ Honey Drizzle Soft Serve (¥360) 100% pure honey drizzled on top of the soft serve. The soft serve itself is mixed with honey, so it is very flavorful! The sweetness is rather subtle, and the aroma of honey spreads elegantly. I have tried various soft serves during my travels, but this one is truly delicious♪ It was cold, so I honestly hesitated about getting soft serve, but buying this was definitely the right choice! ------------------------------------------------ ■ Lemon Honey (¥1200) A companion purchased this and praised it a few years ago. It is pure honey with added lemon juice and lemon peel. (Usage 1) Add it to hot black tea for honey lemon tea♪ (Usage 2) Mix it with soda in the summer for honey lemon soda! (Usage 3) Spread it on freshly toasted bread for honey lemon toast~ (Usage 4) Add it to plain yogurt for honey lemon yogurt(^-^)◎ Add a teaspoonful to your lemon tea. The acidity is noticeable, and it works well as "lemon tea" with a touch of sweetness. Since it is made with lemon alone, it is mellow because sweetness is added. It goes smoothly down the throat. The last bite leaves a refreshing aftertaste with the lemon peel at the bottom. Ah, this goes perfectly with black tea! Even households that do not have lemons on hand can benefit from its long shelf life. ◎ Honey Lemon Toast It has a refreshing sweet and sour taste rather than just being sweet. It seems perfect for summer♪ It also seems good for the body. Unlike regular honey, it is not too thick, making it easy to handle with a spoon. When you think of honey, you may wonder how to use it, but with the addition of lemon, the possibilities seem to expand. In addition, there are other creative ways to use it, such as marinating chicken in honey lemon and grilling it. A place where you can feel the further potential of honey. Specialized stores in any field are interesting, and this visit once again made me realize that (^-^)
