Winter Throat & Cough Defence Set - 1kg jar of Antibacterial Mountain Honey + All Natural Honey & Propolis Throat Syrup
The Ultimate Set to ease the misery of Winter Coughs and Sore Throats
This set includes two powerful winter staples: a 1kg jar of raw mountain forest honey from Mount Olympus with an antibacterial rating of 20, and a 250ml natural cough syrup made with honey, organic propolis, elderberry, and plant extracts. The honey is thick and slow-pouring, which helps it coat and soothe sore throats. The syrup is designed to be swallowed slowly so it lingers and calms the throat.

This batch of honey harvested by dedicated beekeeper Dimitris is slightly lighter than previous batches from Mount Olympus, infused with the essence of mountain herbs and less honeydew from Oak, yet maintaining many of the same beloved characteristics of his Mount Olympus Forest honey.
This honey has a complex flavour profile, enriched by the indigenous herbs and flowers of Mount Olympus along with some Oak, Fir and Pine forests (including trees like the rare Bosnian Pine). The flavour begins with earthy undertones, evolving into a spicy finish that lingers.
All Natural Honey and Propolis Throat Syrup (250ml)
This combines a variety of organic ingredients to make this a highly antibacterial and delicious alternative to supermarket throat syrups. With honey as its primary ingredient, this syrup would already be antibacterial, but it is made much stronger thanks to the inclusion of propolis, elderberry juice, plant extracts, and essential oils.
The flavour is potent but smooth, unlike many harsher-tasting syrups. You can certainly taste and smell the propolis and essential oils
The texture is thinner than some other syrups, so we find it best to swallow it slowly to ensure it fully coats the throat. We've used it here in the office when we've struggled with sore throats, colds, catarrh, and congestion. Plus, we love that it's all-natural and uses lots of organic ingredients!
About Propolis:
Propolis (bee glue) is a resinous mixture that honey bees produce by mixing their own enzymes and beeswax with sap and resin gathered from tree buds, sap flows, or other sources. Propolis is believed to be antibacterial, prevent diseases and parasites from entering the hive and to inhibit fungal growth.
The composition of propolis varies from hive to hive and season to season. Normally, it is dark brown in colour. "Typical" northern temperate propolis has approximately 150 constituents, primarily resins and vegetable balsams (50%), waxes (30%), essential oils (10%), and pollen (5%). Propolis also contains persistent lipophilic acaricides, a natural pesticide that deters mite infestations. Other flavonoids commonly present include galangin and pinocembrin. This particular propolis is sourced from Albert and his mother Marie Teresa.
Propolis is being researched for the potential development of new drugs focusing on a variety of its properties, including those for possible immunomodulatory, anti-diabetic and anti-ulcer applications.
Use: Shake well before every use. Adults: 1 tablespoon (10ml) up to three times per day; Children (over 6): 1 teaspoon (5ml) up to three times per day. Swallow slowly.
Storage: Before use, keep in a cool, dry place, not in direct sunlight. Once open, use within three months.

100% natural ingredients
What does "Active" mean?
This honey has undergone a Total Activity test to measure its antimicrobial power against bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus. With a rating of 20, it ranks among the most potent natural honeys available. This activity comes mainly from a bee enzyme that produces hydrogen peroxide. Note: the activity level is highest at testing and gradually decreases, especially if exposed to heat or light. Store in a cool, dark place to preserve it.
🧊 How to store your honey
Store in a cool, dark place to maintain enzyme potency and texture. Avoid light and heat to preserve its rich character.
🍯 Why Raw Honey is Different from Processed Honey
Raw honey is untouched from hive to jar—no heating, no blending, no heavy filtering. It retains pollen, enzymes, antioxidants, and colour; every jar reflects its unique ecosystem and season.
🌀 Crystallisation
Crystallisation is natural—not a flaw, thus not eligible for return. We do state “runny” or “crystallised,” but conditions may change. See our Runny Honey Guide or FAQs for decrystallisation tips.

Please note:
The label on the Throat Syrup is in Spanish.
Due to UK trading standards restrictions, we cannot make any specific health claims, but there are many websites where you can find more about propolis.
Because propolis tincture is used in this product, there is a very small amount of alcohol. Please be aware of this in case you are avoiding the consumption of alcohol.
