In this episode of Yard to Table , Trevor and Ellen Crafts sit down with C. Marina Marchese—a beekeeper, author, and honey sommelier whose journey from artist to honey connoisseur is as inspiring as it is sweet. Marina shares how a single taste of fresh honey from a neighbor’s hive transformed her life, leading her to create Red Bee Honey and found the American Honey Tasting Society (AHTS).

Dive into the fascinating world of honey as Marina teaches Trevor and Ellen the sensory analysis techniques she mastered in Italy. Together, they taste honeys from around the globe, exploring their diverse flavors and stories. Marina also introduces her latest book, The World Atlas of Honey, which profiles over 80 countries and their unique botanical honey sources.

Get ready to savor the art and science behind one of nature’s sweetest creations. Don’t forget to pick up her book and follow Marina and Red Bee Honey on Instagram for more honey-filled adventures!
