Notes & Tips:

• Storage: honey should be stored away from direct sunlight in a dry place at room temperature or below. Always ensure the lid is secured tightly.
• Crystallization: raw honey crystallizes over time, and it is a natural process. Honey thickens and changes its state - it hardens and becomes grainy. Different types of honey crystallize differently. Some types of honey become very grainy and form larger crystals (like Buckwheat honey). Changes in color and structure (crystallization) are signs of raw, unpasteurized, and unprocessed honey.
• Frosting: another sign of raw and unprocessed honey is frosting. It usually looks like a small white streak or crescent that gradually spreads on the shoulder of the jar. These white areas are tiny air bubbles that get trapped between honey and the side or shoulder of the jar. Frosting and crystallization are natural features of honey, and they don't impact the taste or the quality.
• Settling: buckwheat honey tends to settle after some time.
• Consistency: if you prefer softer, more liquid honey, you can gently warm it by putting the jar in hot water. Warming will liquefy the crystallized honey. Avoid exposing honey to temperatures over 45°C, because higher temperatures may destroy part of the natural nutrients. Please make sure the jar is closed correctly to ensure no water contaminates the honey.
• Colour changes: please know that raw honey can vary in colour and taste from batch to batch - honey changes with the season and climate and depending on what the bees feed on.
• Packaging: our honey is available in recyclable glass and plastic jars of various sizes. The plastic jars are made of BPA-free high-quality shatterproof plastic.
• Safety Information: honey is inappropriate for children under the age of one year.
• Product photos and videos are representative. Honey colour and texture may vary depending on the season and level of crystallisation.
