🍯🔥 Hums & Cackles Artisanal Hot Honey (Medium)

🔥 Sweet Heat. Southern Grit.

Ghost Pepper Hot Honey — The Medium Heat Edition

Our Medium Hot Honey starts with raw North Carolina wildflower honey — golden, unfiltered, and full of floral depth — then infused with the unmistakable warmth of ghost peppers. Balanced with Hatch chili and a whisper of citrus and smoke, it delivers a heat that’s bold yet measured — a slow-building fire that never overpowers its sweetness.

Each jar captures the moment when comfort meets courage — a glowing, honeyed warmth that lingers just long enough to remind you why you came back for another drizzle. This isn’t reckless spice; it’s refined Southern heat.

Crafted in small batches, this infusion walks the fine line between wild and wise — bold enough for the adventurous, smooth enough for every table.

🍸 In Cocktails

A golden flame in the glass — this Hot Honey balances ghost pepper heat with the floral sweetness of Carolina wildflower honey.

Try it in:

• Smoky Hot Honey Old Fashioned – bourbon, bitters, and a spoonful of ghost pepper honey for that haunting slow burn.

• Southern Heat Margarita – tequila, lime, and Hot Honey instead of agave for a radiant glow.

• Honeyed Mule – vodka, ginger beer, and a swirl of Hot Honey for fiery refreshment.

🍞 In Baking

Its layered sweetness brings warmth without overwhelming:

• Drizzle over cornbread or roasted nuts for a spicy-sweet finish.

• Whisk into honey butter for biscuits that flirt with fire.

• Glaze bacon or pecans for desserts with a Southern edge.

🔥 On the Grill

Where flame meets flavor, this honey shines.

• Brush on ribs, shrimp, or salmon for a caramelized glaze with ghost pepper glow.

• Drizzle over grilled peaches or sweet potatoes for a hot-sweet contrast.

• Glaze chicken wings or pork chops in the final minutes for that sticky, smoky finish.

🌾 The Essence

Ghost Pepper Hot Honey embodies Southern boldness with balance — heat that speaks, not shouts. Aged to perfection, layered with depth, and finished with a hint of mystery, it’s the confident middle child between our Mild and Extra Hot varieties.

Sweet fire with Southern grit — unmistakably Hums & Cackles.
