NB: Honey varies greatly in colour, flavour and consistency. It all depends on the blossoms from which the bees have gathered their nectar.
Honey crystallisation:
This is a natural process and does not affect the quality of honey.
If crystals appear... stand the honey in a container of hot water and allow to warm slowly.
Honey's shelf life:
If properly stored -
FOREVER.
We source only the best honey from different countries in the world depending on the seasons' crops, to supplement our South African honey. Imported honey is irradiated to ensure that bee-diseases are not imported into South Africa. In terms of South African legislation, all imported honey needs to be irradiated before clearing customs. Our South African honey is not irradiated.
- Irradiated honey is bacteria free
- Irradiated honey is safe to feed infants
- Irradiated honey is free from Clostridium and Listeriosis
- Irradiation activates enzymes making it more healthy, with better antiseptic properties for burns and wounds.
