Not all canola crops are created equal, if fact varietal differences can 
be quite extreme.  Some will produce honey much like you described or 
even worst (much like it's ancestor rapeseed which would granulate just 
looking at it), others are quite easy to handle. Some produce well and 
others not at all.  At any given time we have over 100 varieties 
licenced in Western Canada. Old ones are dropped and new ones added each 
year, so it's impossible to follow which are better.  You can't leave it 
in the comb for months, but most we have here now are good for a few 
weeks.  It does makes a beautiful creamed product.
