Produced from naturally occurring honeydew collected by bees foraging the mountain beech forests surrounding Mt Lyford, this remarkable honey is unlike any traditional floral honey. Rich, deeply complex and unmistakably unique, it has become a favourite among chefs, food lovers and honey connoisseurs.
Nestled within the rugged alpine landscapes of North Canterbury, our hives produce Mountain Beech Honeydew in limited seasonal harvests that reflect the unique environment from which they come. Every batch is cold extracted to preserve its natural character, never blended, and produced without sugar feeding during honey production—allowing the distinctive qualities of this remarkable honey to shine through in every jar.
Mountain Beech Honeydew isn't simply another honey—it belongs in a category of its own. Equally at home on a carefully curated cheese board, in the hands of passionate home cooks, or enjoyed as a quiet indulgence straight from the spoon, it offers a taste experience unlike traditional floral honey.
Rich enough for the cheese board. Complex enough for the finest kitchen. Memorable enough to enjoy by the spoonful.
This isn't a honey you admire from a distance. It's a honey you live with.

Chicken with Beech honey in the oven. This honey is just the right consistency to add to your dishes without being annoyingly messy. It flows easily from the spoon and the 250g containers are the perfect size to keep the honey fresh and consume within a few weeks.
Multifloral Manuka Honey is a lovely velvety smooth honey that I love to have on my toast. Gives you a great start to the day. I also love to cook with it. It's delicious with Pork.
I love to support a small family business, know where the honey is coming from and know the family. I love the taste of Mt Lyford honey. It's good for me with medicinal benefits and a healthy sugar alternative. I always buy as gifts for my children for Christmas.
