Crystalization is inevitable for all raw honey. Some factors play a role, such as the honey type, storage temperature, and container type, but really it is just a matter of time. Rest assured, the honey has in no way gone bad. Just the opposite, this means you have received raw pure 100% honey! Besides the change in texture, the flavor and nutrition are the same as when purchased. If you do prefer smooth golden liquid, a simple trick can revert it back. Let the jar rest in a warm water bath until the crystals disappear. Sous vide cookers set to 120 degrees work very well. We don’t recommend using the microwave as it will kill the enzymes found in raw honey.
