This is our Creamed Kanuka Honey from the Far North.
It was entered in the 2021 Apiculture NZ Honey contest and won third place in the ‘Creamed Honey’ class for medium-colour entries.
I can’t take much of the credit for this as it isn’t my own honey – it was produced by my wife’s dad’s bees. I didn’t even pot this batch – I paid my sister-in-law to do that for me. All I did was slap my Don Buck Honey sticker on it for marketing, and, crucially, send in a pot to the honey contest!
This Kanuka honey has a super-smooth texture and a distinctive flavour that is less sweet and more earthy than most honey types.
If you would like to try award-winning honey these are going for $13 each, or three for $30 until the end of August. 500g pots. Nationwide courier $4 (non-RD). The page for purchasing our Creamed Kanuka Honey is here.
