🌿 What our customers say

“It is now part of my morning… luscious, thick and addictive.” – Marzia

🧊 How to store your honey

Store in a cool, dark place to preserve active enzymes and smooth texture. Avoid heat and light, which can degrade quality and flavour.

🍯 Why Raw Honey is Different from Processed Honey

Raw honey is minimally processed from hive to jar—no heating, blending, or over‑filtering. This retains natural pollen, enzymes, aroma, and antioxidants. Each batch reflects seasonal and regional diversity, unlike uniform supermarket honeys.

🌀 Crystallisation

Crystallisation is natural and expected—returns cannot be accepted for this. Jars are labelled “runny” or “crystallised,” but the consistency may shift. To revert crystallisation, visit our Runny Honey Guide or FAQs.

🏪 About Us

At The Raw Honey Shop, we believe honey should be RAW, unpasteurised and 100% natural. Since 2008, we’ve proudly introduced over 30 raw and organic honey varieties. Thank you for visiting—we honour honey as nature intended.
