Acacia Honey vs Sidr Honey: Which One Is Right for You?

Both are raw, both are pure — but Acacia and Sidr honey could hardly be more different. Here's a simple side-by-side to help you choose.

Acacia honey: light & versatile

Pale gold and delicately floral, Acacia honey has a clean, mild sweetness and stays liquid far longer than most honeys because it crystallizes very slowly. It's the everyday all-rounder — perfect for tea, coffee, yogurt, dressings and baking, where you want sweetness without a strong honey flavour taking over.

• Colour: very light / pale gold
• Flavour: mild, clean, floral
• Texture: stays runny for months
• Best for: daily use, drinks, cooking

Sidr honey: dark, bold & rare

Sidr (Beri) honey is dark amber, thick and intensely aromatic, with a rich, malty depth. Harvested from Sidr-tree blossoms during a short flowering window, it's rarer and more treasured — a honey to savour slowly by the spoonful rather than stir into everything.

• Colour: dark amber
• Flavour: rich, malty, complex
• Texture: thick
• Best for: eating on its own, special occasions, gifting

So which should you buy?

Choose Acacia if you want a gentle, versatile honey for daily use. Choose Sidr if you love a bold, distinctive honey to enjoy on its own. Plenty of households keep both: Acacia for daily chai and Sidr for eating by the spoon. Shop Sidr honey in glass jars across our honey collection. Not sure your honey is even real?
