All heather honey is minimally filtered, raw and natural - straight from hive to jar! The thick and flavoursome nectar is ethically collected from beehives across Ilkley Moor, blooming heather between the months of August & September.
With it's high viscosity, the extraction of heather honey is a highly laborious albeit enjoyable process! Consisting of ling, bell, and cross-leaved heather, as well as essences of nearby wildflower, the honey holds a beautifully unique flavour! Being too thick to extract with a standard honey spinner, this honey requires a manual press, a real treat for any honey connoisseurs...
Reasons why our bees and honey are special:
1) With the honey unpasteurised and minimally filtered, it is packed full of natural health benefits including anti-inflammatory and antibacterial goodness.
2) The bees are left completely chemical and treatment-free within the Yorkshire Wharfe valley, leaving nature to work its magic.
3) We only ever harvest 50% of the honey source, leaving the bees with an ample reserve for many seasons to come.
Perfect for those who want to add a little luxury to their meals...
