So Many Honeys, So Little Time — Here’s How to Choose
One of the most common questions we get is: “Which honey should I start with?” It’s a great problem to have! Our flavored raw honeys aren’t just sweeteners — each one has its own personality, best uses, and flavor story. Here’s a guide to help you find your match.
Blueberry Raspberry Raw Honey — Bright, Fruity, Crowd-Pleasing
Our Blueberry Raspberry Raw Honey is one of our most beloved flavors, and it’s easy to see why. The tartness of raspberry plays beautifully against the earthy sweetness of blueberry, all carried by the natural floral base of pure raw honey.
Best for: Drizzling over yogurt, oatmeal, pancakes, or ice cream. Also incredible stirred into lemonade or spread on a buttery biscuit. If you’re buying a gift for someone who loves fruit-forward flavors, this is a safe bet every time.
Vibe: Bright, fresh, and instantly likeable. Perfect for people just stepping into the world of flavored honey.
Also available in a smaller size if you’d like to try before committing to a full jar.
Ube Whipped Raw Honey — Creamy, Unique, Unforgettable
If you want to offer someone an experience they’ve never had before, our Ube Whipped Raw Honey is it. Ube — a purple yam beloved in Filipino cuisine — brings a subtly sweet, vanilla-adjacent, almost nutty flavor that pairs with honey in a way that’s hard to describe until you try it.
Whipped honey has a light, creamy, spreadable texture that’s completely different from liquid honey. It doesn’t drip, it doesn’t run, and it’s absolutely dreamy on toast, bagels, waffles, or stirred into warm drinks.
Best for: Toast, croissants, lattes, and anyone who loves discovering new flavors. This is the jar that gets people talking.
Vibe: Bold, adventurous, conversation-starting. Great gift choice for foodies.
Available in both large and small sizes.
Whipped Vanilla Bean Raw Honey — Classic, Cozy, Versatile
There’s a reason vanilla is the world’s most beloved flavor — it goes with everything. Our Whipped Vanilla Bean Raw Honey takes real vanilla bean and folds it into creamy whipped raw honey for a result that feels indulgent but is completely natural.
Best for: Coffee and tea, French toast, overnight oats, and baking. If you’re replacing refined sugar in a recipe, this is your new secret ingredient. It’s also a hit with kids.
Vibe: Warm, comforting, and universally appealing. The honey equivalent of a cozy sweater. Our top pick for gifting when you’re not sure what the recipient likes.
Salted Raw Honey — Simple Perfection
Sometimes less is more. Our Salted Raw Honey pairs pure raw honey with a touch of sea salt — creating that irresistible sweet-salty balance that enhances everything it touches. The salt amplifies the honey’s natural complexity rather than masking it.
Best for: Charcuterie boards, cheese pairings, drizzling over fried chicken or biscuits, and finishing desserts. Also genuinely great straight from the spoon.
Vibe: Elevated, versatile, and surprisingly addictive. Great for people who appreciate simple, high-quality ingredients.
