N2  - A trihydroxy ketone isolated from the extractives of New Zealand thyme honey has been shown by X-ray crystallographic analysis to be (E)-4-(r-1&#8242;,t-2&#8242;,c-4&#8242;-trihydroxy-2&#8242;,6&#8242;,6&#8242;- trimethylcyclohexyl)but-3-en-2-one. Since this compound appears to occur only in thyme honeys, its presence is considered to afford a chemical procedure for the verification of floral source.
