High in the remote Himalayan mountains, mad honey has been gathered by local communities for centuries. Our honey is harvested once a year from wild colonies, using methods passed down through generations. We work closely with local honey hunters on ethical sourcing and fair pay, and with respect for the land, the bees and the culture.

WHERE THE GRAYANOTOXINS COME FROM
Naturally present in rhododendron nectar, and tested in every batch.
What is it?
Grayanotoxins are natural substances in the nectar of certain rhododendron flowers. Bees collect the nectar, and the grayanotoxins carry into the honey.
Tested per Batch
We test every batch for its grayanotoxin content and give one clear limit: up to 5 g a day, less than one level teaspoon, for adults only.
Independent Lab Tests
Every batch is tested by an independent laboratory for its grayanotoxin content and purity, so you know what's inside.
