Who has best selection of monofloral varieties of honey?

I was thumbing through an old copy of Saveur and came upon an article on great monofloral varieties of honey. Who has the best selection in the city? I know Kalustyan has quite a few but am curious if there are stores that specialize in them.

    Dean and Deluca (SOHO) sells more types of honey than any other store I can think of (including Murray's, DiPalo and Blue Ribbon, though these are also good suggestions).

      Not a store, but there is a vendor at the Union Sq. greenmarket that sells honey and may be a good place to check. Used to see them on Saturdays... not sure what other days they are there

        Blue Ribbon Bakery Market has a good selection of honeys.

          Yes, I believe Blue Ribbon's honeys are made by an employee's family apiary in Mexico.

          I can't speak to best selection, but Murrays has quite a wide selection of honeys, and you might want to check DiPalo, though I'm pretty sure theirs are only Italian.
