Honey from a garden, Dulwich, London

120 jars, taken off the hive on 5th July — and a honey that tells you everything about where it came from.

Sue's Dulwich bees are just a few miles from her Tooting hives, but the honey is its own thing entirely. Where Tooting is rich and jammy, this July harvest is jammy too, but with a distinct note of orange that lifts the whole flavour somewhere unexpected. Dulwich is exactly the kind of London suburb that bees thrive in: leafy streets, mature gardens, parks and tree-lined avenues all within easy foraging distance. Every one of those sources finds its way into the jar. The kind of extraordinary honey that people who thought they knew what honey tasted like just love discovering.

Sue came to beekeeping through her father — his beekeeping store, with its smell of cedarwood hives and warm wax, is one of her earliest childhood memories. She spent most of her working life as a gardener and caretaker, keeping bees as a beloved hobby alongside it. Retirement has meant more time with her bees, and you can feel that unhurried care in every harvest she produces.
