Thanks for buying PLAN BEE Raw Honey. It hasn't been pasteurized or fine filtered so contains pollen, propolis, live enzymes and beeswax, all the good stuff, although it isn't suitable for infants under twelve months.
Honey is as an anti-inflammatory, an antioxidant and an antibacterial agent. It is used in Cancer treatments, is good for cardiovascular disease and can reduce cholesterol levels. In the Quran, honey is described as "the best source of healing" and "everything that the bee produces is medicine". Real honey cannot be synthesized and real honey never goes off, it may set (crystalize) but can be cleared by warming in hot water years after it was bottled. Honey crystallization is a sign of quality and shows that the honey has not been heat treated.
PLAN BEE honey is harvested and bottled at Campions in Great Leighs, North Essex, although bees can travel five miles a day so although I control what organic forage is in my garden, the bees can take what ever seasonal forage they like. This means that the honey is very seasonal and its taste, colour and consistency changes from month to month and year to year. If you ever want a free taste or to reserve a jar or two for collection just email me a note here 🍯
