Physicochemical properties of eight samples of Mexican honeys from the West region were measured over 23 parameters, including moisture, water activity, soluble solids, hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), ash, electrical conductivity, acidity (free, lactonic, and total), sugar content (fructose and glucose), color (L*, a*, b*), and mineral content. In addition, honey samples were classified according to the pollen quantitative analysis. According to the physicochemical parameters studied, the samples showed the values typical of honey. All honey samples were classified as dark according to the values of the L* color parameter. Only two honey samples were classified as monofloral and six as multifloral type. In general, the honey samples presented a good level of quality because they meet the physicochemical specifications of international regulation.
