Tasting Notes:

Foraging Area

Waterberg region, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, far from commercial agricultural farms. The hives are positioned in a large Black IronBark Eucalyptus forest surrounded by natural Savannah grasses and close to a natural spring for the bees to drink from.

Aroma

An aromatic honey, initially notes of hay and earth, slightly spicy and herb-like lingering finish.

Taste

Soft gentle aroma with buttery warm notes of vanilla and caramel tastes, slight beeswax and condensed milk flavors. An unexpected sweetness on the finish with medium persistence.

Color

A creamy liquid honey with good viscosity (Pfund Colour Scale 20 - 26 mm).

Dr C Quan

Wow! Out of this world! One doesn’t realise how ordinary “normal” honey is until you taste one which is obviously in a different class.

L Martin

Rich, velvety, round and luscious; like warm brown leather on a hot summer's day after just being tanned.

D Strang

Autumn has a depth of flavour that keeps you reaching for more. It tastes decadent.

Overall Review DW eleven-13

With regards to the flavour profiles Mo our Patry Chef preferred the darker honey. She felt that the earthiness would compliment desserts well. While our sommelier preferred the lighter honey with regards to pairing with wines due to the fact that the lighter honey had a slightly fruitier undertone in the flavour.

Nutritional Information

The Apis mellifera scutellata, African Honey Bee forages among the wild indigenous plants and flowers to produce the finest selection of flavourful, pure raw honey. These bees are also highly resistant to the parasites, viruses, pathogens, and pests that are known to destroy other bee species. There has also been no human intervention in the form of preservatives or genetic tampering, this ensures that āFER produces a honey that is rich in vitamins, minerals, and healthy enzymes that are impossible to mimic anywhere else.
