Product Highlights
- 100% Raw & Unpasteurised
- Cold-Extracted & Coarse-Filtered
- Single Origin: Catalonia, Spain
- From the Blossoms of Mediterranean Orange Trees
- Subtle citrus and floral flavour with herbal undertones
- iTQi Award-Winning Honey
- Naturally quick to crystallise
- Perfect for children and lovers of gentle flavours
Aroma
Fresh, floral, and delicately citrusy. The scent evokes blooming orange trees under a warm Mediterranean sky with a soft herbal lift.
Flavour
Mild and floral with a light sweetness. Hints of citrus dance on the palate, supported by subtle notes of Mediterranean herbs. Very smooth and balanced, with no overpowering aftertaste.
Colour
Pale yellow to light gold when runny, with a soft translucency. It becomes creamier and lighter as it begins to crystallise.
Origin
Sourced from the coastal regions of Catalonia, Spain, where bees gather nectar from the blossoms of the orange tree—locally known as “Azahar.” Unlike tree honeys made from sap, this blossom honey is lighter in both flavour and colour and tends to crystallise quickly due to its natural glucose content.
Common Uses
- Drizzle over fresh fruit, yoghurt, or toast
- Stir into herbal teas or warm water with lemon
- Glaze for roasted vegetables, chicken, or fish
- Sweetener for dressings or marinades
- Use in baking for light cakes, scones, or muffins
👤 Producer Story
Rossend is a master beekeeper from Catalonia who treats honey-making as a true art form. His dedication to purity and craftsmanship has earned him international recognition, including several awards from the iTQi. Each of his honeys showcases precision, consistency, and a respect for nature. From subtle to bold, his varieties reflect the diversity of Spain’s landscapes and flora.
🧊 How to store your honey
Keep your honey in a cool, dark place, away from sunlight and heat. This protects the natural enzymes and active compounds that give raw honey its unique benefits. Avoid refrigeration, as this accelerates crystallisation.
🍯 Why Raw Honey is Different from Processed Honey
Raw honey is never pasteurised or finely filtered. It’s taken from the hive, cold-extracted, and jarred with minimal interference. As a result, it retains its full complement of pollen, enzymes, and antioxidants—changing subtly with the seasons and floral sources. Unlike mass-market honey, raw honey is never heated, blended, or stripped of its natural identity.
🌀 Crystallisation
Crystallisation is a natural process for raw honey, especially blossom honeys like this one, which are higher in glucose. This is a sign of quality—not spoilage. We note the texture (runny or crystallised) on the site at time of packing, but this may change quickly. If you prefer runny honey, simply follow our Runny Honey Guide or see the FAQ on how to gently re-liquefy your jar.

We will resolve this issue by either sending you a new product straight away or refunding your order in full.
If your order is a large tin or tub weighing over 1kg and arrives damaged:-
Unfortunately, we cannot accept returns on tins or tubs of over 1kg. If your tub or tin arrives slightly damaged and leaking, we are happy to give you a partial refund on the amount of honey you feel has been lost. Unfortunately, we cannot replace whole tins or tubs unless more than 50% of the honey has been lost. We would then request you send us pictures so that we can assess the damage and agree the replacement.

Our Returns Policy
If there is a problem with your honey - provided no seals have been broken and the product has not been opened (i.e.: it must be in 'new' condition) you can return your honey to us up to 35 days after you have made your order. Excluding sale items which are sold as per the description and cannot be returned.
We will process your refund within 14 days of having received the returned good(s) or proof of having returned the goods (for example, a proof of postage receipt from the post office), You will be refunded for the full cost of the product(s) as well as any original shipping fees paid.
If you are returning part of a larger order, you may only be refunded a portion of any shipping fees paid.
Please note we cannot issue refunds or replacements for honey because it has crystallised.
We indicate on the website the state of each honey - either runny or crystallised but this information is based on the best of our knowledge and the state can change quickly – particularly in the colder months of the year. The crystallisation process is completely natural (even processed honey will crystallise eventually). If we have indicated that the state is runny and it is crystallised when you receive it - this simply means that it has crystallised quicker than we expected, which can happen. It does not indicate that there is a problem with the honey and therefore is not covered by our returns policy.
Please note that refunds on items bought as gifts can only be issued to the original purchaser.
The Raw Honey Shop reserves the right to apply and interpret this extended returns policy as it decides is most appropriate.
Consumer Contracts Regulations
If you have purchased our products online or over the phone, you will be covered by the statutory Consumer Contracts Regulations.
Consumer Contracts Regulations do not apply to perishable items (eg: fresh royal jelly and fresh bee pollen) or goods with a seal for health protection and hygiene reasons that's been broken.
If the item(s) you receive is somehow faulty or otherwise not as described, your right to return your item(s) is covered under the Consumer Rights Act 2015.
