Unique Flow Properties
Honey has properties very different from just about any other liquid. Depending on the temperature around honey, it either flows fast (warm) or slow (cool). Genuine honey will never separate as it pours in a continuous stream.
Natural Crystallization
Unpasteurized honey crystallizes and hardens faster than pasteurized honey. Left untouched, honey will begin to crystallize after a month or two, and all natural honey will eventually turn solid. This natural process occurs quicker when the jar is left undisturbed and in cooler temperatures.
Temperature Effects
At room temperature, all natural honey will eventually crystallize. The rate of crystallization slows at temperatures below 30 Celsius, making temperature control an important factor in honey storage.
Never Goes Bad
The most unique characteristic of honey is that it never goes bad. Honey is full of nutritional enzymes and has a very low water content (unlike just about every other food), allowing it to stay fresh for years.

What Our Customers Say
Sweet words from sweet people
I’ve had the pleasure of enjoying Zephyr bee honey over the last few years and it is simply delicious. This high quality honey is minimally processed. It has a good consistency and a delicate and varied flavour. I found it to have beautiful aromas of firs and flowers from where it is produced.
Highly recommend this natural and pure honey bee product of Zephyr Bee. Traditionally, tea or warm lemon water mixed with honey is an old- age remedy for a sore throat.
