Product Description

If you're looking for the ultimate flavoursome honey variety, our Pure Snowdonia Heather Honey is just what you're looking for! This mountain honey is produced in small batches and is harvested only once a year from the Ling Heather that grows on Snowdonia's mountainsides between late July and August. Extremely weather-dependent, this is a much sought-after, premium honey.

The apiary site that produces our Welsh Heather Honey is set in the heart of Snowdonia at 200m above sea level. The bees produce a beautifully smooth, dark and rich honey that has a sweet yet earthy taste. Welsh Heather Honey is a great addition to any meal and is often referred to as the "Champagne of Honey".

Pure Snowdonia Heather Honey

We answer the most common questions we're asked about this honey variety in our "FAQ's" menu
What is special about Heather?

Heather flowers are a rich nectar source, attracting bees, butterflies, and other pollinators. Heather is not known to be toxic to humans or pets, and deer usually avoid it. Heather requires more moisture than heath and is not considered invasive.

What does Heather Honey taste like?

It's also, like many dark honeys, particularly high in antioxidants. The taste is just as distinctive. It's complex, aromatic and not too sweet – and combines smoky, warm, woody and floral notes in a flavour as intense and unrefined as the Welsh moorlands it comes from.

Why is Heather Honey so thick?

Many researchers believe that this is due to the fact that much of its original contents upon honey production are held within its gel. And while Manuka is also known to be thick, Heather still manages to surpass it in this category.

Is Heather Honey raw honey?

Heather honey is cold processed retaining the raw and natural properties of the honey. Heather honey naturally has a higher water content than all other honey, and this water content is what makes all honey liable to ferment. With heather the risk of fermentation is greater, it is just a fact of honey life!

What does Heather Honey smell like?

Our Ling Heather Honey is reddish/orange to dark amber. It has a slightly bitter, tangy, pungent, smoky, mildly sweet taste that persists for a long time. It has a strong distinctive woody, warm, floral, fresh fruit aroma reminiscent of heather flowers.
