Any honey is susceptible to physical and chemical changes over time if there is no proper storage. Organic raw heather honey tends to crystallize over time. Crystallization is easily reversible. Crystallization does not change the taste or quality of the honey but changes its appearance. The honey appears thickened and grainy. To reverse crystallization, just heat the honey jar with hot water up to 40ºC and the grannules will dissolve. Then cool the honey as quickly as possible and heather honey will be as good as when it was collected.
