All corners of the world? Yep, from Mexico to Zambia to Australia
NEW Two Bees is a range of pure honeys from all corners of the globe. The Two Bees honey experts go to the ends of the earth (quite literally) to track down top-notch local farmers and beekeepers and work with them to deliver delicious, and varied, 100% pure single-source, luscious, natural honey. No blends. No additives. No residues. No nonsense. And they even go to the love of my life, Western Australia, so I had to try this particular honey. But more of that later. Let’s here more about Two Bees.
Two Bees support smaller businesses, local farmers and the countries the honey comes from, by only transporting when in season, and by sustainable, eco-friendly methods. The range includes:
Mexican Yucatan Pure Honey
A smooth, amber honey straight from the Mayan beekeepers of the Yucatan Peninsula. Here, the bees enjoy a gloriously lush habitat, foraging on the blossoms of Dzidzilche, Tzalam, Kanchunub and other exotic flowers. I tried it. It is smooth, with a lingering taste as I looked down at the crumbs of my honey drenched scones.
Mexican Orange Blossom Pure Honey
These bees have been feeding on the aromatic blossoms of Mexican orange tree plantations. This fragrant honey has an intoxicating, deep and satisfying soft, citrus aroma followed by a rich orange flavour and long-lasting floral accents. Believe me, it tastes as good as the scent.
Western Australian Pure Honey
In this fertile habitat, bees forage on the native plants of Jarrah, Marri, and Banksia. The result is a unique, complex honey with a full-bodied earthiness, a subtle touch of malt, and a warm caramel sweetness. Oh my word, it took me back, right back to my favourite area, the big tree country around the best place in the world, after Yorkshire, Margaret River. It is truly wonderful wonderful honey.
Eastern Australian Pure Honey
The flowering eucalyptus trees of Eastern Australia are a true bee paradise. The resulting honey has a soft, rich sweetness of the blossoms, an elusive hint of menthol and an earthy depth. It does indeed.
Zambian Lowlands Pure Honey
Here, in this remote and diverse habitat, the bees forage all day long on tropical blossoms. The result is a rich, complex, dark honey with a strong, robust taste. A taste that lingered, and with it, somehow, echoes of its habitat.
Zambian Mountain Pure Honey
Sourced in a unique habitat high up in the remote mountain forests of Zambia, this exceptional honey has huge notes of mountain blossoms. Silky-smooth in the mouth, it has a rich amber colour and intense floral accents. It is smooth, as smooth as Mexican Yucatan Honey.
Frost Magazine is a supporter of ethical ‘anything’, so we were enormously relieved that we loved Two Bees Honey as this is a company which is serious about honey and ethical, planet-friendly bee welfare. The Frost Magazine team also nurture bees in their own gardens and have bee friendly areas with thistles and wild flowers,. Sadly we don’t have hives. This, however, is clearly no longer a problem, because we know where we can buy superior ethical honey – such great news.
But talking about hives. Two Bees tell us they always source direct from the beekeeper, helping the economy and environment at the same time. They also take responsibility for the brand’s impact; Two Bees honey arrives by sea and is jarred in the UK. Production is seasonally led and new varieties will be added when the Two Bees honey experts – with over 40 years of experience – set out on their honey-sourcing adventures.
Two Bees Honey, RRP £5.99 for 250g, is available from twobees.buzz
A 6 pack assortment box is also available from twobees.buzz and amazon.co.uk, RRP £35.94
