- Delicious natural honey from the beautiful market town of Ringwood

Raw, unprocessed early summer honey

Due to popularity, orders restricted to 4 jars per order
This delicious runny honey is from our bees that live and forage in Ringwood on the outskirts of the New Forest. We're so proud that our bees make one of the finest honeys you will ever get to taste in the UK. This honey is such high quality that it has, in fact, won first prize at the New Forest Beekeepers' honey show, and we have high hopes that this year's crop will place highly in the awards.
The honey is completely pure and natural with only a minimum of filtering to keep in all the goodness.
If you could close your eyes and taste the New Forest on a lazy, late summer's day, this would be it! To make this honey, the bees foraged on a variety of flowers including clover, linden (lime), blackberry and apple blossom. We're extremely fortunate that our bees can reach many areas of the New Forest, Poulner and Ringwood from our apiary.
Ringwood honey is always a very special honey and with only a few beekeepers producing honey here, it's very rare too. This, coupled with the fact that honey harvests are always unpredictable, means that this year's crop is likely to be in high demand.
Taste, texture and appearance
This year's Ringwood honey is runny and we have extracted it before the bees start to forage on the heather. It's a beautiful light colour and very sweet with a uniquely rich flavour. Being a natural product, the colour does vary from deep amber to rich gold.
Each jar holds 227g (1/2 lb).
Why do we call it natural raw honey?
Our honey has nothing added and nothing taken away. There's no added sugar or water, just 100% pure honey.
The goodness is preserved because it's not been pasteurised, and it's not microfiltered either, so pollen grains are present which may make it more beneficial for you.
