Description
Understanding Raw Natural Honey
Raw natural honey is a pure and unadulterated form of honey that is harvested directly from the beehive and undergoes minimal processing. Unlike commercially processed honey, which is often heated and filtered to remove impurities and extend shelf life, raw honey retains its natural enzymes, antioxidants, and nutrients. This preservation of beneficial components is what sets raw honey apart, making it a highly sought-after product for those looking to benefit from its health properties.
The process of harvesting raw natural honey involves careful extraction from the honeycombs in the hive. Beekeepers typically use a method known as cold extraction to ensure that the honey does not lose its nutritional value through excessive heat. After extraction, the honey is strained to remove large pieces of wax and other debris but is not subjected to fine filtering, allowing it to retain natural pollen and propolis. These substances are crucial as they contribute to the honey's health benefits, including its anti-inflammatory and immune-boosting properties.
How this honey is different
01
Harvested, not manufactured
From one season, one place
This honey comes from a single seasonal harvest in the forests of Uttarakhand. We do not mix batches, adjust flavour, or standardise colour.
What you taste depends on the flowers, the climate, and the time of harvest — not on processing.
02
Handled with restraint
Raw and unheated
We extract honey cold and filter it minimally. No heating. No additives. No blending across seasons.
This helps retain pollen, enzymes, and the natural character of the honey.
03
Left as it is
Natural variation is expected
Crystallisation, colour changes, and flavour variation are normal. They are signs of real, raw honey — not defects.
Every jar may taste slightly different.
That’s how honey behaves when it’s left untouched.
From the Hills
Real honey changes how you taste, feel, and trust what you consume.
What most people call honey has been heated, filtered, and blended beyond recognition. When you experience honey in its raw, seasonal form, the difference is immediate — in aroma, texture, and how your body responds.
