What is Honey in Citadelum

In Citadelum, honey is one of these resources you can't produce.

The only way to get it, is to buy it using a trade route.

Honey was a well known product in the Roman Empire. It was used by those practising medicine to use as an antiseptic and for its health benefits. As the empire still lacked access to sugar at that point, it was also used as a sweetener. Honey was even used in rituals and religious ceremonies sometimes.

Beekeeping was done throughout the Roman Empire, especially in the regions in which the Citadelum campaign is focused. It would make sense if you could produce it yourself, only requiring the addition of an Apiary. To increase the role honey plays in Citadelum, it could be required by doctors to serve higher level citizens or as a consumption requirement for highest level Patricians.
