Do you enjoy honey in tea or hot drinks?
The perfect honeys for sweetening a drink are the ones with a naturally gentle flavour — sweet enough to do the job without changing the taste of your tea. Honey is twice as sweet as refined sugar too, so a little goes a long way.
Each delivery you will receive:
- Small-batch raw honey from named British beekeepers, selected for tea and hot drinks
- 224g / 8oz jars
- The beekeeper's story — name, location, harvest date, jars produced — on every label
- Wonderful for curious children, grandparents, honey lovers and anyone who takes their morning cup seriously
UK postage included in Gift Subscriptions | Plastic-free, fully recyclable packaging
The beekeepers have just spun their honey out of the frame and run it through a sieve, nothing else - so all the delicious natural flavours of the gardens, meadows, fields and woodlands that their bees visited remain.
This is what we mean by 'raw honey' - no processing, heating, blending, adding or taking away - it's as close to how the bees made it as you can get. Which means everyone is different, reflecting the time, place and bees that made it.
About our beekeepers
We visit every beekeeper before we work with them — to meet the bees, see the landscape, and understand what makes each honey. All of them are good custodians: they talk to local farmers, landowners and councils about planting for pollinators and protecting the habitats their bees depend on. We're proud of them, which is why they're the star of the label.
A note on crystallisation
Our honeys will naturally crystalise as the glucose knits around all the pollen grains in it. This is a good sign as it means there's lots of pollen in the honey and it's enzymes are still active ('supermarket' honey is fine filtered and pasteurised to keep it runny for as long as possible).
To bring it back to runny, warm it gently to no more than 35°C — the temperature inside a hive — using a low oven, sunny windowsill, or radiator. Stirring works too. Every honey crystallises at a different rate and in a different way, determined by the nectars that made it.
