Congratulations on your purchase. The Bush Honey you have was made by our bees in Tutumoe, Northland and extracted and jarred at our honey-shed in Dargaville.
This honey has not been blended, creamed or pasteurized and contains no additives – just 100% pure NZ liquid honey. It gives you the best taste experience because it has not been mixed with any other honey. You will be able to enjoy all the subtleties of flavour from honey made in this remote, beautiful landscape in the 2025/2026 season.

This Bush Honey was made predominantly from nectar coming from the Towai tree but also from Manuka and some pasture species such as clover. Towai nectar produces a light coloured honey that is very sweet but with a subtle spiciness. This honey has a unique taste that our customers have come to love and which they find reminiscent of years gone by.
It is a perfect everyday treat to spread on toast, have with yoghurt or cereal, as a healthy sugar replacement in coffee or other drinks or to use in many types of cooking. We highly recommend daily uses where you will be able to enjoy the subtle flavours of this delicious un-blended honey.
Keep your honey in a cool location away from direct sunlight and in a tightly sealed container. We recommend you use the original container your honey came in although any glass jar or food safe container will work. Because the honey has not been creamed or pasteurized it will naturally crystallize over time. You can make crystalized honey runny again by putting on a windowsill or simply enjoy it in its various natural states. We are sure you will love it so much it doesn’t have a chance to crystallize.
We recommend using this honey before 01 January 2028, however this honey
will be edible far beyond this date.
Tutumoe is a remote West Coast valley created from a volcanic eruption millions of years ago. It is located on the northern end of the Kauri Coast in Northland, New Zealand.
