Wild-Harvested from the Treetops of Sumatra
High above the rainforest floor of Sumatra, wild Apis dorsata honeybees build expansive open-air hives along the towering branches of ancient Tualang trees. Rising more than 250 feet into the tropical canopy, these trees allow bees to forage across a broad landscape of native rainforest blossoms.
Yellow Tualang Honey is carefully harvested from these elevated hives using traditional climbing methods practiced for generations. The honey matures naturally in the warm equatorial climate before being gently collected and minimally handled to preserve its natural integrity.
This grade is known for its bright golden amber color and mild, easy-drinking character. Laboratory analysis confirms a naturally occurring presence of pollen grains drawn from a wide variety of tropical plant sources. The result is a honey that reflects the lighter, more delicate side of Sumatra’s rainforest nectar.

Which Tualang Honey Should You Choose?
Tualang honey is graded based on measurable characteristics such as Total Activity (TA), pollen count, and botanical diversity. These natural differences reflect the range of rainforest plant sources collected by bees during each harvest.
Platinum Grade
The highest level of selection, with exceptional pollen diversity and elevated Total Activity. Represents the most complex expression of Tualang honey.
Black Premium
A concentrated, high-pollen grade with strong Total Activity levels.
This variety offers a balance between the intensity of standard Black and the elevated characteristics of Platinum, making it a popular choice for those looking for a high-quality, versatile option.
Black
Known for strong pollen presence and robust Total Activity. A bold and concentrated rainforest honey.
Red
A balanced grade with moderate pollen diversity and activity levels, reflecting seasonal variation in nectar sources.
Yellow
Lighter in composition with lower pollen density, representing a narrower range of floral sources.
Because Tualang honey is wild-harvested, each batch may vary slightly depending on seasonal blooms and environmental conditions.
