Hello everyone,

We regularly find phenol in a certain percentage of sample of pure natural
honey.
Would anyone have any idea of what could be the source of this phenol
present in honey?
Last test I saw reveals concentration of 0,02 to 0,09 mg/kg.One sample had
0,22 ppm.

What could be the source of this phenol?

Smoke, desinfectant, pine tree, thyme?
