Honey from close to Arundel Castle's ground, June, Sussex

A June harvest, 360 jars, and bees with the run of Arundel Castle's grounds.

There's something quietly perfect about this honey. While Kaz's later harvests bring complexity and surprise — toffee, tropical fruit, coffee — this June honey from just by Arundel Castle is something different: pale, shiny, with a creamy caramel flavour and the kind of smooth, traditional-honey character that reminds you why you loved honey in the first place. Wonderful by the spoonful, and — as I should know!  — exceptional on toast. The kind of extraordinary honey that people love rediscovering, reminding them of honey from their childhood. 

Kaz's bees here forage across the fields, hedgerows, tree avenues and gardens surrounding Arundel Castle — one of the most visited and best-loved historic estates in the South East. The castle grounds alone offer an extraordinary range for foraging bees, and the surrounding landscape adds to it further, and this honey shows exactly what that abundance looks like.

Kaz came to beekeeping via engineering and via years spent working with beekeepers across the UK and New Zealand. She now runs over 50 hives across Sussex — each apiary chosen with the care and precision that defines everything she does. Watching her work, you understand why her honeys are so consistently extraordinary despite being so completely different from one another.
