Absolutely gorgeous honey — so pure and full of flavour. You can really taste the difference. I’ll never go back to supermarket honey again.

I love this honey, rich, and beautifully floral. Knowing it comes from native Irish bees makes it even more special.

Hands down the best honey I’ve ever tasted. You can tell it’s been made with care and tradition.

I’ve given jars as gifts and everyone raves about it. Fantastic Irish product.

We did the honey farm tour and it was amazing! Aoife is such a warm and engaging guide — her knowledge about bees is incredible. The highlight was tasting honey straight from hive. Highly recommend!
