Honey from a garden, Tooting Common, London
- In stock, ready to ship
- Inventory on the way
Rich, smooth and deeply jammy. One of our most talked-about honeys — and with only 50 jars, you'll understand why.
Sue's Tooting bees live right on the edge of Tooting Common in SW London, and this August honey has become something of a legend among our customers. The Common gives them horse chestnut and lime tree avenues, blackberry bushes, and the endless variety of surrounding gardens — and the result is a rich, smooth depth that's unlike anything a single-origin countryside honey produces. Ever since Marcus Brigstocke made Tooting Bananas with it on Celebrity Chef, it's been a best seller.
Just 50 jars. Genuinely — that's all there is.
Sue came to beekeeping through her father — the smell of his beekeeping store full of cedarwood hives and frames is one of her earliest memories. She's been a gardener and caretaker for most of her working life, and now that retirement has given her more time, she spends it exactly where she wants to be — with her bees. She's a thoughtful, unhurried beekeeper who genuinely loves what she does, and it shows in every jar.
