3. Choice of honeys, clear, set, soft set, chunk, pressed.
4. Named local sources (and named beekeeper or apiary) giving variety not a
standard homogenised product.
5. Avoid blends except for cheap 'cooking' honey.
6. Sell cooking honey labelled as such but also with a selection of recipes
(different one on each jar) for baking and brewing.  These could be sold in
larger containers.

These policies should enable top quality honey to be sold at top prices, but
also allowing a place in the market for the stuff that doesn't make the grade.
