From Bees:
Our Forest Honey is created when bees collect flower nectar and store it in the honeycomb. The nectar is broken down into simple sugars and the honeycomb helps with evaporation, creating a liquid form of honey. The color and flavor of honey varies depending on the type of nectar collected by the bees. For example, orange blossom nectar creates a light-colored honey, whereas avocado or wildflower nectar creates a dark amber colored honey.
To Hive:
Our Beekeepers in the forests, harvest honey by collecting the frames with honeycomb and scraping off the wax cap that seals off each cell of honey. Once the caps are removed, the frames are placed in an extractor which is a centrifuge that spins the frames and forces honey out of the comb.
To Home:
After the honey is extracted, it's strained to remove any remaining wax and other particles. We do not heat the honey to make this process easier, but keep the liquid's natural composition.
After straining, it's time to bottle, label, and bring it to you. We use the container made of glass to maintain the purity of our honey. We don't add any additive to the Honey. You receive the Honey from bee to hive to bottle - meaning what you're getting is the same quality product that was just harvested.
