Honey,India price supplier

Honey which is supplied are 100% natural taken from bee hives in the hills of Theni in Tamilnadu. Though we supply various types of honey, predominantly produced honey types are Moringa, coriander, chilly and Thumbai a medicinal plant grown in southern  parts of india

  

Honey is collected from wild bee colonies, or from domesticated  beehives .

Collecting honey is typically achieved by using smoke from a  bee smoker  to pacify the bees; this causes the bees to attempt to save the resources of the hive from a possible forest fire, and makes them far less aggressive. The  honeycomb  is removed from the hive and the honey is extracted from that, using a  honey extractor . The honey is then filtered. After the honey is harvested the beekeeper provides the hive with a honey substitute such as sugar water so that the hive does not starve.

Fresh honey is a  supersaturated   liquid, containing more sugar than the water can typically dissolve at ambient temperatures
