Description

The Ultimate Gift Bundle from Organic beekeeper Antonio based in the Sierra del Rincon Biosphere Reserve in the Sierra de Guadarrama mountains North of Madrid.  His beekeeping practices and the land he has his hives on are certified as organic by the Committee of Organic Agriculture in Madrid.

This bundle includes 12 x 970g jars - 3 of each of the following 4 varieties along with a free honey dipper and all natural propolis soap bar:-

Raw Organic Oak honey/Platinum award winner 2022/*Active 20+:  is a very deep and rich tasting tree honey; it has a fruitiness as well as a deep woody flavour. Tree honey tends to be dark, have a stronger  flavour and are  less likely to set due to a relatively low glucose content.

Raw Organic Heather honey This is an amazingly deep tasting shrub honey; it has a depth of flavour with a pronounced bitterness similar to dark chocolate or black tea.  It comes from the bees feeding on the low lying heather shrubs often on mountainous terrain. Heather is a favourite plant of bees. 

Raw Organic Wild Lavender honey is a light and pleasing herb flower honey, it has floral notes and a creaminess like vanilla - but doesn't have quite as strong a flavour as honey from cultivated lavender.

Raw Organic Thyme honey has a soft creamy taste with a gentle herbal hint of thyme, subtle and slightly savoury, ideal for all the family due to its balanced and pleasing flavour.

What does "Active" mean in the product title?: We send some of our honeys to a lab for a "Total Activity test". This test measures the total antimicrobial activity of a honey. This is done by testing a solution of a honey on a lab plate against the Staph Aureus bacteria. The honey is graded according to the amount of bacteria that the honey solution kills. Generally the range that we see will be between 10 and 25 plus. This type of test is similar to the test used to grade Manuka Honey. 

Please know that raw honey does crystallise and this is a natural process that occurs mainly due to the natural glucose in raw honey. For more information on why honey sets visit this article and for a more scientific explanation go to wikipedia.

About Us - Here at The Raw Honey Shop we take honey very seriously and we believe honey should be RAW, unpasteurised and 100% natural. Since 2008 we've been introducing our customers to a whole new world of pure all natural unpasteurised raw honey. With a product catalogue consisting of over 30 different raw and organic honeys we have a variety to suit all tastes.

Thank you for visiting our shop and we look forward to introducing you to a world of raw, pure and truly wonderful natural honey, the way the bees would want it!
