Discover the Delight of Welsh Heather Honey

Welsh Heather Honey is a real treat! It's a unique and sought-after honey made right here in the beautiful Welsh countryside. What makes it so special? Well, it all starts with the bees and the wild heather that blankets our hillsides. The bees gather nectar from these lovely purple blossoms, and that's what gives the honey its distinctive flavour and aroma – a taste of the Welsh landscape in every spoonful!

Making this honey is a real craft. Skilled beekeepers, with generations of knowledge passed down through their families, carefully tend to their hives in areas where the heather blooms. It's a labour of love, and you can really taste the care that goes into each jar. The honey is harvested in late summer after the bees have been busy collecting nectar, and the result is a truly special honey, prized for its unique character.

Welsh Heather Honey is delicious in all sorts of ways. Try it spread on toast, drizzled over yoghurt, or used in baking. It adds a wonderful flavour to traditional Welsh recipes like bara brith and Welsh cakes.

Why is Welsh Heather Honey So Special?

  • Unique Flavour: It has a strong, distinctive flavour that's quite unlike any other honey. You might notice earthy notes with a hint of bitterness, all thanks to the heather nectar.
  • Variety of Flavours: Even within Welsh Heather Honey, there are subtle differences in flavour depending on the types of heather the bees visit.
  • Wonderful Texture: Heather honey has a lovely thick, creamy texture, perfect for spreading.
  • High Quality: Our beekeepers are dedicated to producing top-quality honey. The bees have access to the best heather, and the honey is carefully processed to preserve its natural goodness.
  • Gorgeous Colour: The colour can vary, but it's often a rich, dark amber with a reddish tint.
  • Traditional Processing: We use traditional methods, with minimal heating and filtering, to keep all the natural flavour and goodness of the honey intact.
  • Packed with Pollen: Heather honey is full of heather pollen, which is known for its potential health benefits.
