Mountain Gold Southern Rata Honey | 500g
For a few brief weeks each summer, the Southern Rata tree erupts in a crown of fiery red blossoms high in the misty forests of New Zealand.
Our beekeepers venture deep into these remote landscapes to capture the essence of this ephemeral bloom. The result is a honey of remarkable delicacy and refined character.
Southern Rata honey is prized for its pale, creamy color and its exceptionally smooth, spreadable texture. Its flavor is a gentle symphony of sweet floral notes and a warm, buttery finish, making it a favorite among honey connoisseurs and chefs alike.
Enjoy it as nature’s finest sweetener on fresh bread, in herbal teas, or drizzled over vanilla ice cream.
This 500g jar allows you to savor the subtle, rare taste of the forest canopy.
