Beekeepers: Which Bee Produces The Very Best Honey? Or Does It Make A Difference

[Ben Framed]

Beekeepers: Does a certain strain of bee produce a better or different tasting honey than another strain of bee? Example: If your bees were in the middle of a field of clover which stretched for miles and miles in each direction, would one breed of bee produce a better or different tasting honey than that of another breed?

[Michael Bush]

Apis mellifera is the source of virtually all honey on the planet.  The subspecies doesn't matter.
