In general, honey is a natural sweet substance, although in some places we find the taste bitter honey. usually, the taste of honey bees depends on the feed or suck nectar by bees.

Note the bottle cap, pure honey usually contain a lot of gas, so often the case broken bottle itself being unable to withstand the pressure of gas from the honey. As the anticipation is usually on the bottle cap on the size of pure honey 250 ml often pierced with a needle for the gas can escape.

Viscosity of honey depends on the level of water content in honey. According to FAO (Food and Agriculture Organisation, UN), water content in honey is a good maximum of 20%. If honey is foamy, it means the honey is left too long in an open container and having fermentation. And often it's become slightly acidic.
