Want to Try Honey in its Natural Form?
Don Buck Honey has available Comb Honey from the Hawke’s Bay. This has been harvested from hives placed on agricultural land – this is largely from nectar out of Clover and Squash (like pumpkin) flowers. The honey is a dark color and has a rich treacle-like flavor to it. Honey has some crystals in it but it is mainly runny.
Comb honey real novelty for many people – this is the natural form of honey, just as the bees make it. Honeybees build comb cells out of wax to store honey in, covering it over with more wax once the honey is ready. The wax is safe to eat but it does get stuck in your teeth – so many people spit that out!
$15 each. Usual discounts apply as per potted honey. Special discount of 4x comb honeys for $50. These weigh between 300-340g each.
Produced by another beekeeper and brought to you by Don Buck Honey!
Order online or get in touch with me. Pickups are from Massey, or orders can be couriered to you.
