CUSTOMER QUESTIONS
More about us here
WHAT IS RAW HONEY ? Honey in its natural state (purest form) extracted from the comb. Not filtered and not heated. Raw honey is the only form of honey where you will find all the active enzymes still alive. This is what makes it so healthy! Small amounts of pollen, propolis and wax present in raw honey also adds to the health benefits.
WHAT IS THE COMB? The picture in the background is honey comb constructed by the bees using the wax they produce.
WHERE AND HOW? Harvested seasonally in selected natural areas around the Eastern and Western Cape regions of South Africa. The Raw Honey process consists of taking honey frames from the hives once per season (year), only if there will be enough left over for the bees. These frames are extracted in a centrifuge and the honey is allowed to settle in tanks before it goes into high quality food grade buckets. All honey handling equipment is made of stainless steel to ensure the highest quality end product.
WHAT HONEY VARIETIES DO YOU HAVE? Our honey is typically harvested from open veld, bush or forest areas where the bees work on whatever is in bloom. Most of what we produce is derived from a mixture of flowers and therefore not a specific variety.
IS YOUR HONEY ORGANIC? Most (99 %) of what we produce is from an organic origin. Typically harvested from open veld, bush or forest areas where the bees work on whatever is in bloom. All crop honey we handle separtely and it is not blended with our organic origin honey.
WHEN YOUR BUCKET ARRIVES don't wait too long to decant it into smaller containers due to the possibilty of crystallization. Simply decant the bucket into an equal size bucket (pour only half out) then decant the buckets into a large jug. Use the jug to fill smaller containers. (preferably glass jars,) OR Buy an separate empty bucket from us with a special honey tap to make the process even easier.
RAW HONEY WILL CRYSTALLIZE FASTER because it is not heated. Some raw honey crystallizes faster than others. This has nothing to do with the quality, but all to do with the flowers the bees visit. Honey from different nectar producing flowers all have a different taste, texture, smell, colour and varying sucrose and fructose levels that determine the crystallization time.
IF HONEY CRYSTALLIZES place your glass jar on its side in direct sunlight for a few hours to slowly liquefy the raw honey or take a fork and whip the honey to make it creamy and spreadable.
OUR RAW HONEY IS NOT HEATED, PROCESSED, BLENDED, FILTERED like most in the supermarkets to obtain a consistent taste, texture, colour and extend the time before crystalization. We believe honey should be eaten raw with all enzymes still active and tiny amounts of wax, pollen and propolis particles adds to the health benefits.
RAW HONEY USED FOR HOME MADE MEDICINAL PURPOSES often has a strong taste, dark in colour and better antioxidant/nutritional values. (please enquire, limited)
