What is raw honey – and why is it so good?
Raw honey is honey that has been spun out of the natural beeswax honey combs and contains enzymes and natural bee pollen.
All the floral essences that came from the flowers remain and give our honey it’s amazing nose and taste, with a very smooth finish.
Our raw honey is not processed and ultra filtered like many commercial honeys are. Our honey is not stripped of flavors and goodness.
Our honey is not heated to high temperatures to push through filters. Heat destroys enzymes and flavors. It will have specs of pollen and natural beeswax. It may have an occasional honeybee leg (no worries). These are our “bona fides” and are our evidence of genuineness.
Raw honey will naturally crystallize and that is another characteristic of raw honey that is unheated, unprocessed, and pure.
It is nice to slather or spoon without dripping. It will keep indefinitely over time. Honey destroys bacteria and rest assured our honey is totally healthy and good. It’s simply the best!

High-quality honey. We brew our own Ethiopian Honey wine and I’ve been ordering from Sleeping Bear Farms for more than 3 years. Their product is consistently good and tastes amazing. It’s why we only order from one place.
