Honey
At Bee Hut Ltd, we take pride in producing high-quality honey from our own hives located across Northamptonshire, Bedfordshire, and Buckinghamshire. Starting in Summer 2024, all our honey is processed in our dedicated Honey House in Northamptonshire, ensuring the highest standards of care and quality. ​We are a registered food business and hold a 5* 'Very Good' Food Hygiene Rating
​
We never pasteurize or heat-treat our honey (only ever warming it to temperatures it is found in the hive), preserving its natural nutrients and flavours. Using a gentle, low-tech system without pressurized filtering, we try to maintain the integrity of the honey, ensuring that as much of the goodness of the raw honey is delivered straight to your jar.
​
At Bee Hut Ltd, we harvest honey from each of our apiaries individually and process them separately. This careful approach ensures that every jar can be traced back to a specific location. If you're curious about which of our apiaries your jar of honey came from, simply check the batch number on the bottom of the jar and match it with the table below to find out where the bees collected the nectar from!

Our Honey House
Our new Honey House is where we process all our honey (from summer 2024).​

Blossom Honey
Our Blossom Honey is our ‘summer’ honey and is normally the most runny of our honeys. The bees make our Blossom Honey from June through to August or September (depending on the weather).
Soft Set Honey
We make Soft Set Honey from our spring honey harvest. This honey often contains nectar and pollen from Blackthorn, Hawthorn, Willow, Apple trees, Oilseed Rape, Danilion and lots of other spring flowering plants and trees
Chunk Honey
Bee Hut’s Chunk Honey has real chunks of honey comb from our bee hives within the jar. We place these chunks into the jar and then fill the jar up with our Blossom Honey! As well as having Blossom Honey you also get a treat of being able to enjoy honey comb!
Hand Crafted Honey
Due to demand from customers for a honey that was as little processed as possible we have created our Hand Crafted Honey. This honey is extracted and jarred without the use of any machines or powered tools. The honey is extracted by hand and then put through a coarse sieve and popped into the jar.
Cut Comb Honey
We hand cut our Cut Comb straight from the honey frame taken out of the beehive. A great treat and something very special. Limited quantities of this every year so when its gone its gone….. (until next year!)
Section Honey
Section Honey is our premium product. The bees spend a lot of time and effort making this product and so we only produce a very small quantity every year. The bees draw out the honey comb inside a special wooden frame and then fill it with honey. (a great addition to a high end cheese board to share with friends!)
