Similar to wine and whisky-tasting events, our honey sommeliers will introduce the rich world of honey appreciation. We can go offsite to your location, and have conducted dozens of sessions for corporates, birthday parties, and wacky proposal / wedding events.
Honey-tasting is a 30-minute session, with a flight of 6 unique varietals, such as Lychee and Olive honey. These are not cheap flavoured honeys, but honey made from Lychee / Olive blossoms! $40 per person.
An optional Bee Education is also 30 mins. We can also bring live honeybees, safely in a display case, for an unforgettable bee-themed birthday party! $200 per session.
______________________
Honey is one of the most adulterated foods in the world, (alongside olive oil and milk). The only way you can trust that your honey is real? Buy whole honeycomb, or bottled honey direct from the beekeeper.
We sell small batch honeys sourced direct from the farmer. Our whole frames of honeycomb are from Johorean small-lot beeks. Very instagrammable and served on a classic drip-tray stand, perfect for hotels or restaurants running buffets or festivals.
-
1 Stand + 1 full frame: $250
-
1 Stand + 3 full frames: $600
Our bottled honeys are pure as we source direct from beekeepers in Huangshan China, or bottle our own from bee rescues done in Singapore. Ideal as event gifts or souvenirs. We can customise the label to your design.
-
50g glass jar: $9 per
-
350g glass jar: $15 per
-
Add $50 for custom printed sticker
We also sell pollen powder, proven pure. How do we know? It is re-harvested by our own honeybees at Siglap / Changi. Fake pollen is very common on the market and our bees simply show no interest in it. $30 for 100g.
All prices before GST
