While using default world scale of cm's. Try setting the gravity to 2.45 (1/4th of default gravity) this will slow emission down   Keep the MVS to a less refined value (more refined = more breakup and detail/resolution. Honey tends to remain clumped together, so you want a higher/less refined value. I tested wit the default MVS of .5 this will keep it "clumpy"   Set the droplet threshold to .25 and keep the mergeback depth to 2 keep it low to prevent it from creating droplets uncheck the vorticity enable switch you dont want vorticity (churning or Eddying) at all set surface tension to .75 help a bit with a fake viscosity and increase the viscosity scale to 1 provides some viscosity emulation, works better for things like motor oil.   on the emitting objects shape node, in the bifrost section set the:   keyframe Continuous Emission from on to off (use stepped interpolation. Easiest to do in the channelbox) on the keyframes you want the emission to stop. set the expansion rate to -.5 this will narrow it a bit as it flows out from emission and the Stickiness Strength to 1 leaving the badwidth to 0   then turn on meshing and alembic cache out your results.   leave collider at solid rather than shell.   see if that gives you better results.
