Our natural sunflower honey is derived from sunflowers by strategically placing bee-boxes in chemical-free sunflower fields. Rich in taste and aroma of sunflowers, this honey has a medium sweetness, strong acidity and a short after taste. The honey is usually bright with a yellowish tinge. It contains little sucrose and will quickly crystallize.

Our Sunflower honey is harvested sustainably in April when sunflowers bloom and can be traced to our micro-farmers who are also bee-keepers. We promote sustainable, natural, and ethical beekeeping practices while sourcing some of the most exquisite high-quality honey from farmer cooperatives all around India.

Production Process
Bee-Friendly Process
Our beekeepers share our vision of ‘balanced beekeeping and promote a bee-centered approach while caring for bees and their hives. We separate honey varieties by season and location, so the honey you get comes straight from the beehives, preserving the unique flavors and aroma of each flower nectar in the jar.
Step 1: To extract mono-flora honey, our bees migrate to a location where the flowering season of a particular flora has started.
Step 2: We set up wooden beehive boxes at the heart of the flowering field so that bees can make multiple visits to flowers until they get all the nectar and pollen out of it
Step 3: No artificial acceleration is induced in the honey collection or production process
Step 4: The honey is produced naturally by bees by reducing the moisture content of the nectar to below 18%
Step 5: Freshly harvested honey is inverted into a food-grade steel barrel. Such naturally collected honey will have beeswax and traces of royal jelly, bee pollen, and propolis that enhances health benefits.
Step 6: The honey is bottled as-is into smaller convenient sizes without processing and this is exactly what reaches you, with all nutrients intact!
