FIELD: food industry.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to food industry. According to the proposed method, one selects samples of honey, determines weight fraction of fructose, glucose and maltose in the samples by way of a highly efficient liquid chromatography method. Additionally, one determines diastase number in the samples. One identifies honey according to ratio and amount of weight fractions of fructose and glucose, weight fraction of maltose and diastase number. One accepts honey as acacia honey in case the total glucose and fructose content is within the range of 58.2-63.1 wt %; weight ratio of fructose and glucose is within the range of 1.69-1.73; maltose content is equal to 7.2-9.5 wt %; diastase number is equal to 7-13 Gotha units.
EFFECT: invention allows to reliably identify acacia honey.
