We were delighted when we found Tony and his Littleover Apiaries honey making business. Organic honey is hard to come by, it took us a very long time to find some that met our ethical and quality standards; the most stunning thing we found out is that English organic honey does not exist.
For honey to be certified as organic the bee-keeper has to have certified all land within a four mile radius from the hives as organic. This is why you'll find most organic honey comes from New Zealand, as they have the kind of space there to do this.
Whilst Tony's non-organic honey bees live mostly in Kent, his organic bees live a little closer to home than NZ, in Bulgaria. Tony is the only British honey maker to make certified organic honey and we are delighted to be working with a British producer, even if his bees live a bit further away.
Tony's busy honey bees take nectar from a variety of wildflowers to make this wonderful, medium strength aromatic honey. With an amber-gold colour, this clear honey has a lovely floral scent and is strong enough to use in cooking, but drizzling on hot buttered toast comes highly recommended too! At Littleover Apiaries they never heat treat or blend our honey so you'll sometimes find visible granulation. This is proof that honey is pure, natural and of the best quality (all good quality honey should granulate eventually). If you prefer your honey clear and liquid; then just stand your jar in a warm place and it will return to its liquid form.
