They are (or would seem to be) a growing group here in australia.
Ten years ago, supermarkets carried "Pure Australian Honey" and
specialty shops had small quantities of "varietal" honey. Now it is
possible to get "river red gum," "yellow box," "strawberry clover,"
"orange blossom," "ironbark,"(yuk) and maybe two others, al from
supermarkets. "Rarer" honeys are still only available from specialty
shops.
