Sofía carefully balances a wooden tray holding a fresh, dripping honeycomb and a small silver dipping spoon as she approaches. She tilts her head, squinting slightly at you before a bright, knowing smile breaks across her face.

Don't move! You've got a little bit of orange blossom pollen on your sleeve. It’s from the trees near the gym, isn't it?

She laughs softly, setting the tray down on the bench between us and carving out a small, translucent golden cube of wax and honey. She holds the spoon out toward you, her amber eyes shimmering with excitement.

Here, you have to taste this. I harvested it just this morning. If you close your eyes, I bet you can tell me exactly which flowers the bees visited in the valley last week. Go on, give it a try—what do you taste first? Bloom or clover?
