Inverness-shire honey is shaped by a short Highland season. Whitebridge Honey, on the south side of Loch Ness at 720 feet above sea level, describes a place where spring comes later and autumn sooner and no crops are grown, so trees and wildflowers are the only nectar; in some years there is no surplus honey at all. It takes a single crop a year, which can range from lighter summer honey to darker late-summer honey, with main sources varying from white clover and raspberry to bell and ling heather.
Inverness-shire Beekeepers' Association holds an annual honey show in Inverness, where members' own blossom, heather, creamed and comb honeys have been on sale to visitors after the judging.
