I can only say that your honey is the best, and that it has been an inspiration for me. I will be keeping bees this year. I am currently painting my woodenware in anticipation of my package bee's. Thanks again for everything you do!

Dear Mr. Smiley When I ordered your Tupelo Honey, I am not sure what I exactly expected. My family and I like honey, prefer it to other "sweeteners," and have a fondness for family-owned businesses. So, when I read about your apiary in Miss Bishop's Book, I thought, "Yes, we should try some of this kind of honey." Ordinarily, we buy local honey for all the obvious reasons. But the lure of this honey was very strong. Then the Tupelo arrived. Oh , my goodness! Sweetness and light in a bottle! Mr. Smiley we have been trying to describe this lovely honey ever since we tasted it. (Of course, we need to keep tasting to see if we can be more accurate in our description.) We've come up with, "Green," "fresh," "water," (please bear in mind that this bottle of Tupelo ended up here, in what we politely call "Drydaho" so " water" means something delicious to us!), and, being myself from the south, I proclaimed that one could, taste the very southland in this amazing elixer. Still, all words fall short. God has most certainly blessed his very earth with the bee. More to the point, He has blessed us all with the fruits of your labor. Thank you for the beekeeping, the Honey, and making sure it arrived in such a timely fashion and in great condition.

We're long time customers: we'll give a few away as presents at holiday time, and greedily eat the rest! Best wishes.
Terry, CA.
Much like most people, this has become not only my favorite honey, but my families as well. When we ran out last year and no one seemed to have any left, we were stuck with some local wildflower, which was good, but not like your Tupelo! As I have in the past, I will look forward to receiving your package and opening it up to take a taste before adding it to my morning tea! Thanks for all of your hard work on this! It truly has become a staple of my families diet!
Damien, MD.
Very easy website to use! Thanks
Bobby, TX.

I read with wonder, about the bees and you, in Robbing the Bees. You built a beautiful house. Wishing you success. I think you should have a book and honey combo, because I would like to send the book with two pounds of honey to two different familey members. I am going to make the recipe for hand and body cream in the back of the book and give to friends.

Mr. Smiley. Thank you for sending the order of honey so quickly. The tupelo I received is most definitely the best honey I have ever tasted. I have been trying to bake with honey since it is much better than processed white sugar. I love the mild taste of it. Thank you again for such prompt service. I will be recommending your online store to all my friends. Blessings to you.

Mr. Smiley, You have truly spoiled us and we owe this in part to Ms. Holley Bishop, for if I had not read her superb book"Robbing The Bees" I would never have discovered both you and the extraordinary world of the honey bee. Many times thank you, it is due exclusively to impassioned individuals like yourself that the future of these amazing little beings will be preserved but having said that we need the rest of the world to join in a mojor effort toward saving our global environment. Most sincerely:
Mrs John, CT
Dear Mr. Smiley Today we received the Tupelo I ordered Friday. The Tupelo Honey is simply wonderful! the fragrance so aramatic but the flavor is heavenly. I've been eating honey for 30 years and yours is the finest I've ever had. Thank You! God Bless You & Your Bees.
Bobby & Gini, FL.
This is my second order and I am very pleased. Thanks. I used the honey as party favors for a birthday lunch. The honoree's mother had introduced me to Tupelo Honey and, as as we were all suposed to bring a limerick, I wrote this to accompany the Honey. You wonder why Tupelo Honey. Vicki's mom was right on the money Fay sagely advised it won't crystallize. This Honey will allways be runny!

I received my first order from you of Tupelo Honey last week. I have never tasted finer honey in my entire life. I have been useing your honey in just about everything I cook! You have a customer forever.
Elaine, NJ.
Love your honey! Came to your place and bought some Tupelo, it is great! Thanks.
Karen, AL.
Donald, First, thank you for getting my order to me so quickly. Secondly, I know honey. I have bought and enjoyed honey from every beekeeper in my area over the past 10 years (at least 30). Have also tried a number of major brands (IE Aunt Sue's - Sue Bee unprocessed) Unprocessed is usually my favorite, due to the depth of the tastes. I have not tasted anything like your honey before, very light, sweet, and the depth is great. I was most worried how it would taste in my Gunpowder tea as I drink 4-5 cups per day. Perfect. perfect, perfect. This is some really REALLY good stuff you have here. My next order will be your 60 pound tub... and I really cannot wait to try it on my corn bread! I love honey, and sir, you make the best honey I have ever tasted. Thank you again, my next order will be in a week or two.
Andy, NH
We love your honey! It really is the best honey out there.

Dear Donald and Family and of course old A.J.,lol
To start with Happy Holidays or as we say Merry Christmas and a prosperous Happy New Year. I placed an order from you last evening and asked when I might expect the package to get up here to Ontario,CA and sure enough I got an email from UPS (my favorite courier to!) that said that the expected delivery date was to be Dec.24th, so Wow Thank You all so much for your wonderful website that has taught me and soon to come to my wife once she gets her very first Taste of Tupelo for Christmas. To be honest I got the idea from a TV program filmed in Florida- CSI Miami, but I can't believe that I have been serving my Lovely Wife Tea for over thirty years and I hadn't remembered about Tupelo Honey and that with the internet it is so easy to find the best of the Best out there (you guys of course) and get it delivered to your door, huh and I call myself somewhat of a computer wizard and I can fix anything and recover lost info but I rarely get past emails and work. So thanks so much for the website and you now will have a repeat customer and then some after all our friends get a taste of the Gold. I look forward to it arriving and getting the opportunity of emailing you the results of the Taste Tests. Best of luck keeping your stock healthy as Ontario has been hit bad for the past three years and we don't even have to worry about flooding just Mites and Bad Cold weather.
Sincerely Yours,
Mark

I usually get my Tupelo honey while on vacation in Florida, a couple of small bottles a year. It's gone very quickly and then, I get the store honey until I get back to Florida. Tupelo is definitely my favorite honey and now that I found your website I'll be able to enjoy it all year long. THANK YOU !
Ron, MN.
I read about you in the book Robbing the Bees which I just finished today. My favorite part of the book was learning about your company in particular and I am very happy to be able to try your Tupelo Honey! Suzanne

On our trip back from Florida last June we purchase an 8 ounce bottle of your Tupelo Honey. We started sampling it in the past two weeks and love it. And it is almost gone! So consider this an emergency order, please. ;-)
Cindy, BC
I used to keep bees in Florida - 10 years ago! I was one of the very few female beekeepers around. I had 350 hives in the Gainesville area that I migrated to Michigan for cherries every year. I miss my bees and the taste of Florida honey so much, I had to get some! Best of luck, I hope your bees are doing well.

I've ordered from you before and love your honey; it's the only kind I use. My first experience with Tupelo Honey was a bottle purchased on vacation in Gulf Shores area. Google searched when I ran out and found you.

We have previously purchased your honey and, to be candid, consider it to be the best honey in the world (or at least...the best honey we have ever tasted)!
Byron, IL.
We first experienced your honey when a cousin gave us a jar of your honey when we were visiting him in Beverly Hills, Florida. It is quality stuff! Please keep up the production for those that appreciate such a fine honey.

Thank you for your wonderful honey. We have purchased Tupelo honey from you several times in the past and introduced a local neighbor to your honey. She has also purchased your honey recently.

I read the book about you a few years ago. Ordered a lot from you back then, and recently realized how much we miss your honey. Also read recently about bad honey products from China and even local bees just feed on sugar. Can't wait to the "real thing" again!!
Terry, PA.
Bought a gallon a year or so ago from you. I like what I have received.
Kenneth, OH.
Have been ordering your honey for past 3yrs. LOVE IT!!

Fabulous honey! You're right, it doesn't crystallize, I have a 4-year old bottle I've kept just to see.
Michele, WA.
Even though I've lived here in the Shenandoah Mountains for 30+ years, I grew up in North Florida, and I really enjoyed your pictures. So glad I found you...and look forward to a lot of good honey. Thanks for caring for the bees, Kerry.
Kerry, VA.
We love the honey we received from you this week. It is superior in flavor and color to what I bought from others.
Fred, SC.
I order this every year for my mom in MN. She and my dad used to visit your apiary when they drove to the FL panhandle every winter, a highlight to their trip. Dad died 5 yrs ago, and each time this arrives at Mom's house, she is surprised and delighted thanks to the memories, and of course the wonderful Tupelo. We've all benefited from your product.

Just read Holley Bishop's book "Robbing the Bees". Good book. I appreciate what you do even more. I brew mead (several have won awards including sixth place in the national American Home brewers Association contest). I have not tried tupelo honey but have heard it is the best honey for mead.
Donald, NC.
Best honey in the World! I have been buying tupelo honey from you for four or five years.
I. P., VA.
No other honey compares to Tupelo honey. It is simply the best! Thank you for shipping your products. As much as we love traveling down South, the 2,500 mile round trip to pick up some honey is a bit excessive (but SO worth it!!)

Dear Donald:
Thanks for the tour you gave us and my Spanish speaking friends with dog (English cocker spaniel) on sept 8. We all love the honey and the box you shipped back to my office in Maryland with 24 2 oz jars, I gave them to my co-workers and everyone has been commenting on how great tupelo honey is. I gave them you web site to order more.
Just wanted to let you know we enjoyed the tour and the honey!
Leonel, MD.
My order arrived safe and sound this afternoon! Of course, I immediately opened one of the jars and took a piece of the chunk to taste it. After having a few hours to mull over how I would tell you my reaction, all I can say is that simply I have *never* tasted anything so amazing as Tupelo honey. It's incredible with the various notes I tasted (floral, a bit of green) and the astounding richness of the honey almost knocked me out. I have been eating local Iowa, Illinois, and Wisconsin honey for most of my 43 years, and I'll continue to do so. However, I plan to order more honey from Smiley Apiaries in the near future. (And I don't plan to share my two jars of chunk honey.) I'm so grateful for having stumbled across Ms. Bishop's book and discovering your business! Thank you for the hard work and taking the huge gamble to be a beekeeper, and for producing honey that's so good it's almost beyond words to describe it. Warmest regards, Susan
Susan, IA.
Taste like home. I grew up with Mr. Donald and his daughter Lisa. Spent many days and nights at his house. I remember playing in his backyard listening to the bees buzz from just the few hives he had at the time. I can almost smell the honey now. Can't wait to get it and share it all the way up here in Maine
Christina, ME.
I bought some a few months ago. I had checked numerous websites, and this one appealed to me the most. Lots of information, photos, and evidently a real dedication to making good tupelo honey. Thank you.

Donald, I am planning to get some bees next spring. I have been reading and studying everything I can get my hands on about bees. My wife bought me Holly Bishop's book "Robbing The Bees". Very interesting and informative. I have always liked honey and now can't wait to taste Tupelo honey. Thank you for your work with the bees. Thank you for doing your part to make Holly's book what it is.

Your honey is the best in the world. We have given it as Christmas gifts for several years and our friends eagerly look forward to receiving their "sweet" gift during the holiday season. We give it to them ahead of time so they can use some with their holiday baking. We visited your business several years ago and have ordered regularly since then.

I ordered from you because of your great web site. I love knowing about the folks I order from. We had bees when I was young. Viewing your pictures I can go back to that happy time. thanks Jeritza
Jeritza, TN.
I've bought your product in the past...and was very happy with it. I buy enough to share with my parents and friends. (Great honey)
Leslie, OH.
My wife and I grew up in Port St. Joe. We have been eating your honey for several years now. Tennessee honey cannot compare to your Tupelo honey. We forgot to stop by on our visit during the holidays. I am so glad to know that your honey can be ordered online.

Over Christmas our family vacationed at Cape San Blas. We were shopping at the Appalachicola Piggly Wiggly and another customer told us about Tupelo honey. We bought it and the whole family loves the taste. It is by far the best honey we have ever had. Thank you!

I am going to place an order now. I ordered from you for the first time last Christmas, and I am back again. I have tried many a honey over the past year, and none come even close to the lightness and sweetness of yours! It is like olive oil, or wine, they all taste different, but I love yours! And I can tell you work hard at it and take pride in it from looking at all of your pictures! Your place is immaculately kept! I love bees and I plant tons of flowers for them each summer. I love watching them buzz around, especially the bumble bees.
Happy New Year to you and yours. Many thanks for what you give to us – that sweet tupelo honey! Keep up the great work!
Lynne
I placed an order for some honey earlier this week, and I just got my shipment today! I just wanted to say thanks for the great fast service. My husband’s going to be really excited about this Christmas present; he’s a Sopchoppy boy and he misses his tupelo honey.
Jil, KY.
My husband and I have just recently cut out all sugars except Tupelo honey and Stevia. We have been ordering our honey online in bulk, and have discovered that your honey seems to be the best price! I just ordered two, 5 lb jugs and can't wait for it to get here! I have been reading about you and your company on your website, and feel like we will be getting the best quality Tupelo honey we can find! Thank you for your devotion to bees and nature! We look forward to enjoying your honey for the rest of our lives! :)
Tressa, TN.
I just wrote an email to y'all. But I will repeat: I love your honey! Nothing compares! Thanks again, Lynne

The best honey I have ever tasted. I order double to share with a friend.

We had bought the dvd of "U lee's Gold" when it came out not long after having moved here but learned a lot more about the honey itself from You. A beautiful thing from a beautiful place. MANY,MANY THANKS FOR WHAT YOU DO!!!! Take care of Yourselves and the little striped guys.
Timothy, GA.
I have been ordering Tupelo Honey from Lanier for some time, but decided to try something different when they ran short this season. In addition to the order below, I ordered two additional 5 lb. jugs of tupelo honey from Dutch Gold & Lanier on the same day that I ordered from your company. All three jugs were delivered on the same day, however of the three Dutch Gold was the only one that was poorly packaged resulting in the top of the plastic lid breaking in transit. Although the product did not seem to be affected, due to the sloppiness of packaging (The bees would not be happy!), I will not be ordering from Dutch Gold in the future. Also, I must say that the color and taste of your honey was far superior to either of the two others I purchased. My husband said it tasted "clean" and had no lingering aftertaste. We go through a lot of honey in our household and you can rest assured that I will definitely be ordering from you again. Thank you (and the bees) for your awesome product!
Debra, FL.
Thank You for your great job! It was the best honey I ever ate! Now my family drinks tea just with tupelo honey:-)
Tibor, CA.
I buy from you every year and use the honey for my coffee and on toast. As I studied honey, I learned of the health benefits. I am a testimonial to, at age 63, I have been amazingly healthy since using your honey the last few years, along with exercise and a healthy diet. You are the best, Mr. Smiley, for giving us a pure product and for being kind in allowing Holley Bishop to spend time with you as she wrote Robbing The Bees, a wonderfully informative book. Thanks, Mr. Smiley!

We stopped in your store a couple weeks ago on our way to Jacksonville. We bought our first bottle of Tupelo Honey and loved it!
Stephen, NM.
Our first bottle was a gift. We tried another brand available at a fruit/vegetable stand in Tallahassee. We think yours is superior!! Thnakfully your web address was on the label. Is it available anywhere in Tallahassee?
Judith, FL.
We love your honey! We read about you in Robbing the bees.
Tammy, MA.
We were introduced to this honey during a visit to Florida last year. It is good honey for my wife since she is a Type 2 diabetic and we both love the taste.

We have been ordering your honey for several years now -- primarily as Christmas gifts for our friends who fell in love with it after we shared some of what we purchased at your home. Now even more friends want to try it, so we are ordering "extra" to share. It is truly the BEST honey in the world!
Marry, LA.
I started reading Robbing the Bees, and wanted to try your honey. Thanks for sharing your stories and your knowledge.

We have bought tupelo honey down in Apalachicola and thought it was pretty darned good. Your four bear bottles of honey from Smiley Apiaries came a few days ago, and it is better than what we got in Apalach (no contest). I am alternating the honey with local sorghum so I don't eat up your wonderful creamy gold too soon! I came across "The Honey Trail" by Grace Pundyk, purely by chance, at the Oak Ridge library. I checked to see if you and your product are mentioned in the book... Indeed you are, beginning on page 245. (I guess you know this.)

Dear Donald, Been meaning to contact you about the recent bottles of your Tupelo Honey I purchased. It was wonderful, and the taste is like no other. I will never buy store brand again. I had bought Tupelo at a Whole Foods Store in Tampa, and it was awful tasting. Thinking it would be good coming from a high end grocery store. It Was Not!. Thank you for your great Tupelo Honey!, and keep up the good job your company is providing for your customers. "I will be back" Respectfully; Yvonne.
Yvonne
Liked that y'all were geographically close to where the bees make their magic, and you have really good prices.
Joyce, TN.
I stoped for fuel and to my surprise found the best taste treat in the world.

After reading the book years ago about Mr. Smiley, I sent for some of this honey, gave it as Christmas gifts, and have finally run out of my own little stash. It is the best I ever tasted. I recommend it to all my friends and family.
Gwen, CA.
This is the forth time I have purchased 5 gallons from you. Each 5 gallons lasts a little over a year for my wife and I. I do share quarts of the honey with friends from time to time. Last time, January 2010, I stopped by your place and visited with you. You gave me five one gallon jugs for the same price as the 60 lb bucket (you had the gallon jugs ready but did not have a 60 lb bucket ready), which I appreciated very much because they were so much easier to handle. Every morning I mix one tablespoon of honey with two teaspoons of Bragg Apple Cider Vinegar in 6 oz of water and drink it. This is a great cleanser for the body. Also use the honey to sweeten my cereal, yogurt drink, etc. My wife cooks our desserts with the honey. Thanks, and God Bless.
James, FL.
Thank you so much for fielding my phone call the other day. I really appreciate you taking the time to answer all of my questions, and I'm looking forward my next trip to St. George Island. Now I have one more excuse to go: I really want to come visit your apiary! I told my family about it and they are equally excited. I went ahead and got the gallon jug. I realized that my daily consumption was such that it would be gone by the end of the year, but I also told a few friends and family I would share some of your wonderful honey with them. I'm confident that after one taste they too will become loyal customers of yours, as the honey produced in your neck of the woods is incomparable in flavor, quality and value - nothing we get here in OKlahoma compares, especially when you consider the price. Thank you again for all your help the other day. I want to assure you that I'm hooked, and when I find a quality product that I like (especially one that is produced and packaged by a small business like yours whose owners obviously take pride in their product), I am a lifetime customer without any shadow of a doubt. As long as you're in business, I will be ordering my honey from your company. Best wishes to you all, and thank you again for your commitment to producing honey with such premium quality, exquisite taste, and exceptional value. You have yourselves a new lifelong customer, and I will be recommending your product to friends, family and strangers alike.
R. Clole, OK.
Thanks for being there to take my call tonight. I'm taking your Florida honey to family in Italy. I leave Aug 25. It will be wonderful to have something 'not made in China' Thank you!

Tupelo Honey has always been my favorite honey. So over 70 years I have developed a taste that can tell the poor varieties. I have found yours to be the best for taste and aroma
John, AR.
Ordered a gallon container 5 years ago. Just finished it and it never developed any crystals. It was good to the last teaspoon.
Diane, SC.
Thought good clover honey was the cat's pajamas until I had your Tupelo. One of the great tastes in this world. Read about you folks in Robbing the Bees, but had coincidentally had some "Tupelo" honey from another source that probably wasn't the real deal. One taste of your honey (I've tasted honeys from all over the country) and I realized I'd found the equivalent of a first growth Bordeaux wine. Wonderful!
Bill, MN.
Honey arrived in perfect condition and very quickly. Yum!!! My new favorite honey. Great with Yogi brand sweet chai tea, Tupelo honey and splash of 1/2 & 1/2. Great doing business with you. Lisa was very helpful. We'll be back... Jacqui

Found you on internet and already ordered in the past. Time for more. I go through tupelo honey as use it daily. Yours is excellent. Unable to get local grocers to order this kind of honey so this is my mode now.
Megann, CA.
I love honey! We watched "Ulee's Gold" the other day on TV and decided to try some. Reading about quality and percentage, and pollen analysis, and watching the movie twice, I decided you guys sound like probably the best around. So I really look forward to your Tupelo Honey! Thanks!
James, CA.
Found you by using Google - for tupelo honey. First tasted this honey at a farm stand in Florida. Really like the fact that it doesn't crystalize over time. I share it with my relatives - they really enjoy it.
Cindy, PA.
Drove past a store near Panama City, FL, bought some honey and it was the best I've ever had. Had to buy some more online. So glad you have a website for online ordering!!

Happy New Year, Don! My “honey” enjoyed your honey!! My husband really enjoyed opening his gift of Smiley Apiaries Tupelo Honey on Christmas Day. It’s simply the most delicious honey we’ve ever had! As it turns out, yours is the exact apiary and honey he saw on the television program and was so longing for!! You’ve gained a happy customer. Kindest regards, Jill
Jill
My 11 year old daughter is a great fan of your honey and yours alone [she does not even like other Tupelos] and her birthday is 1-7-2012. I did not realize we were out! Thank you and Happy New Year!!!

I googled Tupelo Honey, which for some reason has been impossible to find in groceries here in NH. We love it because it's good, and also because it doesn't crystalize.

Ordered once before for another family member. We were introduced to Tupelo honey when we visited St. George Island a few years ago. Best honey around.

Hello. Heard about you on the cable show "Hairy Bikers". I'm not a honey expert, so I've never heard of Tupelo honey. Can't wait to try what I have been led to believe is the gold standard of honey from a company that produces the best example of it. Wayne
Wayne, FL.
This is my second order with you, I've become a faithful customer. I'm buying Christmas presents. Your honey is wonderful! I'm from down south, Tupelo honey is a favorite treat that I missed until I found you! Thank you for making your delicious honey available, all the way up in Maine. I'm excited to share it with others, they have no idea what they've been missing! And, Merry Christmas! Pauline
Pauline, ME.
Quick! I'm in the middle of withdrawal! I ran out of honey and the prognosis is bleak! If I don't get my Tupelo, it's on your head *wink*. Hee hee hee. -Skip

My husband has stopped by and purchased honey from you on his way to and from Appalachicola. I am not a honey person, but your product has won me over. Seriously!

I have this everyday with oatmeal and have tried other types of honey, but its not the same. Using this has opened my eyes to the importance of the bees and how they work. We have had a warm winter up north and the other day I saw a honey bee out and about. Its like seeing a celebrity, I love them little guys.
Mark, MS.
I'm a multiple-repeat customer. Love that Tupelo Honey!

Lee, OK.
Honey arrived today !! WOW ! tried it just by itself. Such a nice light floral (can't think of another description) taste and finish. And you can tell it does not have that 'too sweet' taste that some honey has. After trying yours, I tasted some honey that a friend of mine in NW Missouri sent me from his hives. While his is much better than most store bought honey, you can really taste the difference, while his is very good, it is a stronger and a little heaver and a little sweeter taste than yours. I will give some 'small' portions to friends with your web site address, hopefully they will like it . thanks Ron
Ron, NV.
Thank you for your prompt shipping, and secure packaging, as I safely received my California-bound order placed Wednesday afternoon on Saturday. And I can not speak highly enough of the honey...I have never had any quite like it and am thoroughly enjoying it. Much appreciation for the experience!
David, CA.
Mr Smiley, Just to let you know we received our Tupelo honey today, it is everything we expected it to be. The color, freshness and above all the exquisite flavor places this as a top notch product. We will gladly recommend this to friends and family. We have placed you iin our "favorites" list and look forward to another transaction in the future. Thank you again for sharing this wonderful and unique product.

Just visited my Mom in Greensboro Fl for Thanksgiving and bought some Tupelo. It reminded me of being a kid. So happy I can order it online. As soon as I'm out, I will be ordering. These Las Vegas Folks don't know what it is, but everyone I've let taste it loves it.
