Mountain Valley Native Bush Honey is a gift from nature, untouched by human hands.
This honey is harvested from pristine forests where no human intervention has occurred.
It is collected from ancient, untouched native forests.
The beehives are placed within these forests to gather the honey.
Wild plants such as Manuka, Kamahi, Rata, and Clover bloom in varying proportions each year.
The honey collected from these blossoms creates a exquisite harmony that changes annually.
It offers a deep flavor and rich aroma, like bottling the entire native forest.
It pairs well with spices and nuts, and can be widely used in cooking and beverages.
*Please note that depending on the harvest year, the honey may crystallize or remain in a liquid state. We appreciate your understanding.
Enjoy it on bread or hotcakes.
Add to hot or cold beverages. Simply pour hot water for a delicious drink.
Use as a base for cooking, in dressings, or for baking.
Serve as a sauce for cheese or meat dishes.
Enjoy with nuts and dried fruits.
Add to yogurt.
◆About Mountain Valley Apiaries
Mountain Valley Apiaries is a small, family-run beekeeping operation located in the Mount Richmond Forest Park at the northern tip of New Zealand's South Island.
Marie, the father, manages the beehives and bees, while Nicky, the mother, handles the bottling.
"Good honey requires the optimal environment, healthy bees, and good weather. Beyond that, the less human intervention, the better – nature knows best," says Marie.
They do not use high-temperature processing or filtering, delivering the honey's original taste, aroma, and nutrients such as minerals, amino acids, and enzymes in their natural state.
You may see small particles in the honey; these are particles of beeswax and are edible.
- How long is the shelf life?
Honey is known as a natural preservative and does not inherently spoil. However, after approximately four years from harvest, the essential amino acids begin to gradually decrease. Therefore, we set an expiration date of four years from the harvest date.
- Why does the honey's condition vary? Does the taste change?
Differences in the honey's taste and texture can arise primarily due to local weather conditions, the success of the blooming season, and storage temperatures. Honey that has undergone minimal artificial processing is alive. Variations in taste and texture are all part of nature's bounty. Please enjoy it.
