Latvian Raw Forest Honey – A Taste of Nature

Latvia is known for its vast forests and unspoiled nature, making it a perfect place for bees to produce rich and flavourful honey. Our Latvian Raw Forest Honey comes straight from these wild landscapes, offering a unique taste and natural goodness that sets it apart from other honeys.

What Makes It Special?

Latvian forest honey is gathered from a mix of wildflowers, trees, and honeydew found deep in the forests. Unlike regular flower honey, this variety has a darker colour, a stronger aroma, and a more intense flavour with earthy and slightly woody notes. But what truly makes it unique is the environment where it is produced.

The dense forests of Latvia are home to diverse nectar sources, including linden, oak, heather, and buckwheat. In addition to floral nectar, bees collect honeydew, a rich substance produced by aphids feeding on tree sap. This blend of flower nectar and honeydew gives the honey a deep, bold taste with hints of caramel, malt, and even a touch of spice. The presence of natural minerals and antioxidants further enhances its complexity, making it stand out from lighter, milder honeys.

Why Does It Taste So Bold?

The flavour of honey is shaped by the landscape, climate, and nectar sources available to bees. In Latvia’s cool northern climate, plants produce highly concentrated nectar, resulting in a more intense honey. The long, slow summer days allow the honey to develop a richer depth of flavour compared to honey from warmer regions.

Since Latvian forest honey contains honeydew, it has a stronger, less sugary sweetness and more robust depth than standard blossom honeys. This gives it a slightly savoury edge, making it perfect for those who prefer honey with character and richness.

Why Choose Raw Honey?

Raw honey is unfiltered and unpasteurised, keeping all its natural benefits intact. It contains pollen, enzymes, and nutrients that are often lost in processed honey. Our Latvian Raw Forest Honey is just as nature intended – pure, raw, and full of goodness.
