How to keep the rest
To maintain the quality of your clover honey, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep the container tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption and contamination. If honey crystallizes over time, which is a natural process, you can gently warm it in a water bath to return it to its liquid state.
