Is your honey raw?
Yes.
Our honey is never pasteurized.
After harvesting, it is gently strained to remove larger natural hive materials before it is bottled.
Why do you strain your honey?
We gently strain our honey to remove larger natural hive materials, such as pieces of wax, honeycomb, and the occasional bee part that may be present after harvesting.
Straining does not involve heating the honey or making any additions to it.
Can I purchase completely unstrained honey?
Yes.
Upon request, our Five-Gallon Honey Pail can be provided completely unstrained.
Because it comes directly from the hive, unstrained honey may naturally contain wax, honeycomb, pollen, propolis, or occasional bee parts.
Please let us know when placing your order if you would like your Five-Gallon Honey Pail unstrained.
Do you add anything to your honey?
Our original honey contains one ingredient:
100% raw and pure Florida honey.
Specialty varieties may contain additional natural ingredients. Any added ingredients will always be listed on the product label and in the product description.
Why does my honey look or taste different from my last jar?
Honey is a natural product.
Its color, aroma, flavor, and texture may vary from one harvest to another depending on the flowers visited by the bees, seasonal conditions, and weather.
These natural differences are expected.
My honey has crystallized. Is it still good?
Yes.
Crystallization is a natural characteristic of raw honey and does not mean the honey has spoiled.
If you prefer a smoother consistency, place the closed container in warm (not boiling) water until the honey gradually returns to a more liquid state.
How should I store my honey?
Store your honey at room temperature in a cool, dry place.
Keep the container tightly closed when not in use.
Always use a clean, dry utensil when serving.
There is no need to refrigerate your honey.
Why should I keep water out of my honey?
Honey naturally contains very little moisture.
Introducing water into the container can reduce its natural stability and may encourage fermentation over time.
How long will honey last?
When stored properly in a sealed container, honey has an exceptionally long shelf life.
Natural changes in color, aroma, texture, or crystallization may occur over time and are normal characteristics of raw honey.
