I hate to disagree with Jeff Hamelman, who calls me a "comb honey 
master."  But when I  re-do my labels, I'd be tempted to use the word 
"artisanal" and let the buyer read into it whatever he/she wants  since 
a major factor  in selling is to raise the quality quotient.

           On the other hand, for my modest hobby/ business,  
adjectives  like "local" and "Vermont" and "pure"  are probably equally 
compelling for spurring sales.
