Honey is a natural preservative and just about lasts for ever. There have been royal tombs found where the body has been preserved in honey and the honey is still the same as it was thousands of years ago.

Properly produced and stored honey will last indefinitely. However, jars of honey bought in a supermarket will have a 'use by' date marked on it because that is what people expect.
