FAQs

What is raw honey?

Raw honey is honey in its purest form, unpasteurized and unfiltered, taken straight from the hive. It is minimally handled with no added sugars or preservatives. It is not commercially heated which helps preserve its natural enzymes, antioxidants, vitamins, aromas, and character.

How is your organic raw honey made?

Our organic raw honey is made in Sicily by beekeepers who follow strict organic practices from hive to harvest. The bees forage in certified organic landscapes free from pesticides. The hives are managed without synthetic chemicals or antibiotics. The honey is gently extracted and lightly strained without high heat, preserving its natural flavor, aroma, and integrity just as the bees intended.

Is pure honey the same as raw honey?

Not always. Pure honey means it contains no added sugars or syrups, but it may still be commercially heated or highly filtered. Raw honey goes a step further by remaining unpasteurized, unfiltered, and minimally processed, providing more health benefits and keeping more of its natural properties intact.

Do you infuse flavors into your honey?

No, we do not infuse flavors into our honey. Each variety gets its flavor naturally from the flowers the bees pollinate. For example, our lemon blossom honey comes from bees foraging on lemon blossoms, which gives it its delicate citrus notes straight from the source.

How to store raw honey?

Raw honey is best stored at room temperature in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. There is no need to refrigerate it, as cooler temperatures can cause natural crystallization. If crystallization occurs, simply place the jar in warm water to gently return it to a smooth consistency.

How to use raw organic honey?

Raw organic honey is incredibly versatile and easy to use. Drizzle it over yogurt, fruit, or cheese, stir it into tea or coffee, or use it to balance vinaigrettes, marinades, and glazes for meats and vegetables. You can also bake with it or enjoy it simply by the spoonful. For more ideas and recipes, explore our guide to the best ways to use organic honey.
