Allen is correct concerning comb honey.  I usually freeze all my comb honey,
to prevent wax moth damage, and have left it in the freezer for up to two
years with no granulation problem when it is removed.

That said, some cut comb producers today do not drain the pieces after
cutting and I have frequently seen the liquid honey in the container
granulate, while the honey in the comb remains liquid.  Why...I dunno.  But
there is no question that honey in the comb granulates much slower than
liquid honey.
