throats and colds, and provide relief from hayfever. .The potential health benefits of honey aremany due to its nutrient rich content and anti-microbial properties.

Recent studies  have found incredibly high levels of beneficial bacteria in honey harvested from wild colonies of bees, thereby confirming scientifically what traditional cultures have understood intuitively - that wild honey is nature’s supreme healer.

Wild honey is superior to all other honeys as it captures the unique terroir of the region in which it has been produced, is bee-friendly and ultimately more natural than other commercially available honey because the comb is produced entirely by the bees. In contrast, most commercially available honey has been produced from re-used or plastic combs and has been homogenised, micro-filtered, and pasteurised, thereby losing all discernible
taste and health benefits
