Honeydew Forest Honey is the original African honey, also called ‘bush honey’ and recognized for it’s medicinal properties. It is known for its dark bronze color and rich robust taste. Honeydew is created by tree dwelling insects that make a concentrated nectar from tree sap and leaf nectar. The wild bees know this is good healthy stuff and they ‘steal’ it to make this potent Honeydew Forest Honey. It boasts a robust, full-bodied flavour that isn’t overly sweet. You’ll detect hints of carmelized sugar, dried stone fruits and a subtle, light molasses aroma. It is packed with antioxidants, two time more than Manuka. This is the honey that the ancients called ‘medicine’.

Product description
Our Zambia and Tanzania collection brings together honeys shaped by different African landscapes and beekeeping traditions. From Zambia’s miombo woodlands to the forests of Tanzania, each honey reflects the plants the bees visit and the people who harvest it.
African Bronze Honey
Miombo Blossom is a multifloral honey made by bees foraging among the woodland flowers of Zambia. It has a warm amber color, with notes of butterscotch, flowers, and a subtle hint of smoke. Traditional beekeepers harvest the honey from bark hives; it is raw, unpasteurized, and gravity filtered.
Maasai Honey from Tanzania
Maasai Honey works with rural beekeepers in Tanzania, with a particular focus on creating income opportunities for women. Its honeys come from bees foraging on the region’s wild plants. The company purchases honey from village beekeepers and supports sustainable beekeeping practices.
