Review: carried in the tiny mouths of little bees :) - Oh, to think this was created by the tiny mouths of hundreds of little bees just for me—it's touching and heartwarming! You can almost taste their little mouths. 😊 On a serious note, this raw honey is really good value for money. As long as I find it at a special price, I will keep buying it. I'm also excited to explore some of the other varieties they sell. Is it better than store-bought? Who knows! This honey has a distinctly different taste, but I love the size and its unique flavor. It’s made from buckwheat, and I’ve never tried that in stores, so I can't compare. This experience and that of a photoshoot I have planned has inspired me to dig deeper into how honey is produced. I love it! It's such a healthy food, and I’m planning to use it as a substitute for sugar in my biscuits. The Sweet Science of Honey Honey is a delightful marvel created by our buzzing friends, the bees! Here’s a humorous and sweet take on this golden treat: Bee-licious Creation: Did you know that honey is essentially made from bees "chucking up" their food? Yep, those little pollinators transform nectar into a sweet masterpiece through a process that involves regurgitation—think of it as nature's own version of “sick” tasting good enough to jar! The Sweetest “Sick”: If only our “sick” could taste like honey! Imagine selling your own unique flavors in jars. Who wouldn’t want to try “Citrus Surprise” or “Minty Delight”? The thought alone is enough to make anyone chuckle! Health Benefits: Beyond the giggles, honey is packed with antioxidants and has soothing properties. It's a natural remedy for sore throats and can add a touch of sweetness to teas and recipes. Versatile Ingredient: Whether drizzled on toast, mixed into yogurt, or used in baking, honey is a culinary superstar! It’s definitely worth keeping a jar or two on hand—just don’t tell the bees it's “chucked up” food! 😅 In conclusion, honey is not just a sweet treat; it’s a fun conversation starter about the wonders of nature. So next time you enjoy this golden goodness, remember the bees and their rather amusing method of production!
Review: The Natural Evolution of A Jar of Raw Honey & Avoiding the Pitfalls of a New Skincare Trend - The Verdict 🍯 I purchased this 1kg jar of Q Honey in June 2025, and as of January 2026, I am finally reaching the bottom. This isn’t just honey; it is a living, award-winning product that has maintained its incredible forest aroma and complex floral taste for over seven months. 🌲 🥀🌸 🌼 Why it stands out after 7 months • Aromatic Purity: Unlike supermarket "squeezy" brands, this remains as rich as the day it was opened. • The Baltic Connection: You can really taste the Lithuanian wildflower origin—it’s deep, earthy, and not just "flat" sweetness. • Natural Evolution: It has naturally crystallised, which is the ultimate proof it is raw and unpasteurised. Mastering Your Jar (My Favourite Hacks) 💡 • The "Non-Stick" Measure: Lightly oil your spoon before scooping; the honey slides right off for mess-free baking. • The UK Baking Conversion: If you are swapping sugar for this honey in your recipes: 1) Use 200g of honey for every 250g of sugar. 2) For this quantity of honey, reduce liquids by about 30ml to 45ml and 3) Lower the oven temperature by 15°C to prevent over-browning. 🎂 • "Whipping" the Gold: If the honey sets too firmly, use a stand mixer for 15 minutes. It transforms into a light, airy "creamed honey" perfect for crumpets. 🥞 • Zero-Waste Tea: When the jar is nearly empty, pour your hot tea directly inside and swirl to catch the final nutrients. ⚠️ CRITICAL SAFETY NOTE: The Tallow Honey Balm Trend With Honey and Oil scrubs and Tallow and Honey balms trending heavily in 2026, many are DIY-ing their skincare. As a long-term user, I must offer a warning: Honey is a humectant (it attracts moisture). When mixed with fats like tallow at home, it can create a breeding ground for bacterial growth if left in a cupboard. 🦠 The Safer Solutions • Make "On-Demand": My top tip is to mix your scrubs (use Grapeseed oil, sunflower oil, Rosehip oil or Jojoba as they are non-comedogenic) as you need them rather than storing a pre-mixed pot. • Pasteurisation vs Raw: Ironically, for DIY creams, a pasteurised honey is actually a safer option than raw honey, as the heating process deactivates enzymes that can contribute to spoilage when mixed with other ingredients. Save this beautiful Q Honey for eating and "on-demand" masks! • Store in the fridge: If you must pre-mix a balm, keep it in the fridge and use it within a month ✅ Pros: Incredible depth of flavour; massive 1kg value; recyclable glass jar. ❌ Cons: The jar is heavy and the lid can be a bit stubborn if honey gets in the rim (keep it clean!). Final Thoughts 🐝 If you want honey that is as fresh in the depths of winter as it was in the height of summer, this is the gold standard. It is versatile, ethical, and holds its quality better than any other brand I’ve tried.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is raw honey?**
A: Raw honey is honey in its purest form — unheated, unfiltered, and unprocessed. It retains all the natural enzymes, pollen, and beneficial compounds that the bees create.

**Q: Why choose raw honey over regular honey?**
A: Unlike regular honey, which is often pasteurised and filtered, raw honey preserves its natural taste, aroma, and nutrients. It’s as close as possible to honey straight from the hive.

**Q: Does raw honey crystallise?**
A: Yes, and that’s a good sign! Crystallisation is a natural process that shows the honey hasn’t been heated or processed. You can enjoy it as it is, or gently warm the jar in warm water to return it to a liquid state.

**Q: How do I uncrystallise honey?**
A: Place the jar in a bowl of warm water (around 40–45°C) and leave it for 20–30 minutes, stirring occasionally if possible. Repeat if needed.

**Q: How should I store raw honey?**
A: Keep it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. There’s no need to refrigerate — it stays fresh naturally.
