Single Varietal Raw Honeys
Harvested on the tropical island of Java |
With the first drops of rain in early September, the mountain regions of Java Island experience a wonderful change of seasons…a time of flowering for many of the island’s fruit trees. The air is thick with the varied perfumes from this sudden mass blossoming. An audible buzzing can be heard on the wind. This is island honey season. |

An incredibly exotic raw honey! Try serving with aged cheeses such as cheddar, blue cheeses and Parmigiano…Smear over pink grapefruits and citrus and grill for an incredibly fresh dessert…Drizzle over pancakes and waffles

Coffee Blossom - One of the lightest amber honeys we offer and a hit among fans of light western honey (i.e orange blossom, blackberry or clover ). The honey is truly fragrant with the aroma and flavor of citrus zest and starfruit. Add to cheese plates with mild, nutty flavored cheeses such as Asiago or Manchego. Toss with sea salt and lightly roasted nuts such as Walnuts, Marcona Almonds or Cashews. Also becomes a beautiful glaze for meats such as ham, duck breasts and short ribs when reduced with jerez vinegar, citrus zest and garlic…

Rambutan Blossom - From the flowers of the Rambutan Tree comes a honey with colors ranging from light to dark amber depending on the season. The honey has a fruity nose and bright flavors of sweet citrus. Drizzle over sliced green apples and serve with brie or for baking, try using in place of sugar to create subtly sweet scones and muffins…For hot drinks, spoon liberally into a pot of English Breakfast, Ceylon, Lemon or Ginger tea.

Lychee Blossom - A honey of golden hue and smooth silky texture. The buttery mouth feel is coupled with overtones of butterscotch, clover and citrus. Drizzle over or mix into fresh cheeses such as tangy chevres, fromage blanc, mascarpone and fresh sheep’s milk cheeses. Add spoonfuls to a steaming pot of spicy chai or mix into a bowl of thick Greek yogurt and add fresh fruit.
