> How do you define 'Artisanal Honey'?
>
Bricklayers, potters, coopers, basket makers, bakers--these are trades where
the maker, under certain circumstances, can be an artisan.  The word
"artisan" suggests handwork, suggests human involvement in the steps of
production, and specifically describes humans (rather than machines). Honey,
therefore, cannot be artisan. Whether or not the producer can be is open to
discussion.
