Origin:
This thick creamy white honey comes from bees feeding on the wild mesquite trees that litter the plains of the Mexican Plateau in Aguascalientes state of central Mexico, almost 2,000 metres above sea level.
Wild mesquite trees are unique to this part of the world and fill the horizon of these arid desert plains, growing from 8 - 20m high and bearing pod-like fruits.
Bees feed on the nectar from pods to produce our Raw Organic White Velvet Mesquite Honey.
Once a year local beekeepers from the Gomez family harvest this honey so we can bring it to your table straight from the hive - raw, living and unfiltered.
