See details

From hive to jar

Six weeks, no heat

Grassland in bloom

After the rains the savanna flowers and the bees work from first light.

Capped and ready

When the bees cap the comb with wax, the honey is ripe. We take only what the colony can spare.

Frames out, by hand

Frames are lifted, uncapped and spun the same day.

Strained, not heated

Through a fine sieve and into glass. Nothing added, nothing taken out but wax.

Honey colour

From water white to dark amber

Honey's colour comes from the flowers. Lighter honeys taste delicate; darker ones are deeper and richer.

We do not heat, blend or filter out the character. If a honey sets in the jar, that is the honey being honest.
