🧊 How to store your honey

Store in a cool, dark place to preserve enzymes, flavour, and consistency. Avoid light and heat, which can reduce its effectiveness and smooth texture.

🍯 Why Raw Honey is Different from Processed Honey

Raw honey goes from hive to jar with no heating, blending or over-filtering, preserving pollen, enzymes, aroma and antioxidants. Unlike processed supermarket honey, each jar’s taste and colour reflect its season and region.

🌀 Crystallisation

Raw honey naturally crystallises—this is not a defect (returns cannot be accepted). We label jars as “runny” or “crystallised,” but states can change. To restore runny consistency, follow our Runny Honey Guide or FAQs.
