HONEY TASTING CONTEST

OPPORTUNITY AWAITS!!!!

Greetings Wisconsin Beekeepers,

I apologize about the late notice and for intruding during the

Holidays, but I’m not sure how else to get the word out…

The Center for Honeybee Research is a non-profit 501 C (3)

organization that sponsors an annual international honey-tasting

contest. Cash awards are generated by entry fees and sales of the

honey.

The purpose of the Contest is to showcase flavorful raw honeys from

every region. Scoring is based upon taste/flavor by panels of judges

who are not allowed to see or discuss the honey they are sampling.

Please view our short video at CenterforHoneybeeResearch.org to get a

feel for our event.

The reason I’m reaching out is beekeepers in Wisconsin don’t seem to

know about this and I suspect we are missing out on some pretty tasty

honey. Our deadline has been extended to Dec. 31, 2018 and although

that doesn’t give you a lot of time I’d like to point out 1) We do it

every year  2) the honey doesn’t have to be from this year  and 3) you

can enter as many as you like.

Local honey is a valuable resource which rarely finds its way beyond

regional markets and we’d like to “discover” the treasures Wisconsin’s

micro-climates and make them known on an international stage.

Thank you for your consideration and may you enjoy a Happy Holidays!

Sincerely,

Carl Chesick
