Pure Somerset honey
Pure Somerset honey with nectar collected from village gardens throughout Somerset, the colonies are distanced from any large mono-culture farmed crops... this is a delicate multi-floral honey with complex flavours.
One teaspoon of pure Somerset honey is made from approximately 336,000 flower visits and is the lifetimes work of 12 honeybees, be sure to savour every drop!
-
Raw honey, extracted using traditional methods at room temperature (heating and cooking with honey breaks down the enzymes which are part of the amazing heath benefits of honey), if making a hot drink for health reasons, add the honey last, just before drinking and stir in well.
-
Minimally filtered - twice filtered under gravity - not pressure fed, again preserving the active enzymes.
-
Produced by our own bees - from hives throughout Somerset.
Our honey, contains all the natural enzymes and anti-microbial goodness that nature intended because we use a traditional but time consuming method which ensures that the enzymes are retained, preserving the potency of this liquid gold.
We never harvest more honey than any one colony can spare - we ensure each have retains enough of their own superfood to last them through Winter and into Spring before we harvest again. While this means our stocks are smaller than large scale bee-farming, our bees are all the more healthier and more resistant to disease because of this.
We limit our apiary sizes to four colonies per well stocked acre. While this makes more work and travel for us, it is healthier for our bees and less competitive for wild pollinators of which 35 species are under threat of extinction.
You can taste the difference in our honey.
Raw honey should not be fed to infants under 12 months old.

Customer Reviews
Lovely tasty honey. Just had a slice of Tiger bread with butter and a spread of Somerset honey. Absolutely delicious!
Firstly, the honey is lovely. So much nicer than supermarket honey. I don't know if there's such a thing as a honey sommelier but it's f there is, this would be at the top of the recommendation list. And wonderful service. I ordered and paid for my honey at 21.40 on a Wednesday. It arrived, prettily and securely wrapped, on the Saturday. Definitely will be a return customer
Thank you for your lovely review. We’re so pleased you enjoyed the honey and the service — the ‘honey sommelier’ comment made our day!
Yum 😋
So glad you enjoyed it — thank you for the sweet words! 😋
This honey is gorgeous. It tastes so pure, and it's a lovely colour. It tastes even better because I know it comes from an ethical, sustainable source, in a beautiful part of the country. And a mention for the fast delivery in completely recyclable packaging too.
Thank you! We’re so happy you enjoyed the honey and appreciate our sustainable approach.
Best I’ve ever had, highly recommend !
Thank you! Thrilled you enjoyed it - that means a lot.

Some see selling honey as exploitation - We see it as a partnership.
We practice ethical beekeeping which supports wild pollinators, strengthens local ecosystems, and helps protect bee populations under threat from habitat loss, pesticides, and climate change. In our practice, the bees always come first: queens’ wings are never clipped, swarming is allowed, the bees keep the vast majority of their honey. The small surplus we harvest funds their care and conservation, ensuring more healthy, thriving colonies to pollinate the plants we all rely on.
Our Apiaries are limited to a maximum of four colonies to any one well stocked acre. This means more work and expense for us but helps mitigate pressure for resources on wild pollinators. Our Apiary in Steart is now limited to two colonies due to the pressure on pollinators.
We work hard to raise awareness of the plight of wild pollinators, suffering from lack of habitat, loss of wildflower meadows, lack of safe chemical-free food. We plant for all pollinators and leave areas of garden to go wild and encourage you to do the same.
