Wild Bee Forest Honey
₹170 – ₹350
This is wild bee forest honey, collected by honey hunters from remote forest areas in a natural environment. It is extracted by squeezing the honeycomb, giving it a turbid appearance due to the rich pollen content. With its raw taste and natural top-layer sedimentation, it appears distinctly different from apiary honey.

Sustainable harvesting
Wild honey is typically collected from native bee species, In India there are mainly 3 types of indigenous honey bees 1)Apis Dorsata 2)Apis Florea 3) Apis cerena there is other less know species called Apis Trigona. The majority of wild Honey comes from Apis Dorsata colonies as seen in the pictures.
With around four decades of experience in procuring wild honey from honey hunters, we have developed a sustainable technique of harvesting, that involves cutting only the honey-bearing part of the hive. This approach benefits everyone involved:
- Honey Bees: The honey bees habitat is preserved, allowing them to produce another round of honey without additional effort while also continuing to pollinate and maintain the ecosystem and biodiversity.
- Honey Hunters: They do not need to search for new locations, as they can return to the same spot for future harvests.
- Consumers: The honey extracted is of higher quality, free from excess pollen, larvae, and other impurities that could affect its quality
This method ensures that our customers receive clean, top-quality wild honey, while also supporting environmental sustainability.
The Honey Hunters
This practice of honey hunting is prevalent in various cultures worldwide and is characterized by the knowledge and skills passed down through generations. In India, tribes such as the Kanjers hunt honey in regions like Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, and Rajasthan, while Karnataka has different tribes engaged in honey hunting. We coordinate with these honey hunters, teach them sustainable harvesting techniques, and procure honey from them, ensuring both quality and environmental responsibility.
Wild Honey procurement
Procuring wild honey is always a challenge compared to sourcing it from beekeepers. However, these efforts reward us with high-quality, organic honey, rich in diverse floral nectar and bee pollen. Extracting honey from wild honeycombs requires extra care since no extractor machine is used, (as in apiary honey extraction). Before squeezing the honeycomb through cloth, larvae, dead bees, and pollen cells must be carefully isolated to ensure the quality of the final product.
Characteristic features of Wild forest honey
Since honey is extracted by squeezing the comb through cloth, it is often called “squeezed honey.” This method results in honey that is rich in bee pollen, which gives it a turbid appearance. While the honey initially appears shiny before extraction, once squeezed, the pollen cells are also released into the honey if not removed carefully. As a result, honey extracted from indigenous bee colonies is typically turbid, with constant top-layer sedimentation of bee pollen, which imparts a strong, raw aroma. If exposed to a humid atmosphere, this top layer can even ferment. However, with proper care, fermentation can be avoided. The resulting taste is rich and raw, with the pollen contributing significantly to the strong taste and aroma.
