Our goal is to provide the highest quality food, that is good for you. We conduct rigorous testing of our honey in 3 stages. First, we test the incoming raw materials that we source from our beekeepers, then we test it right after packing and for the third time, we send the samples to one of the best independent labs in Europe, to make sure you are getting the purest, highest quality honey available.

We pride ourselves in producing 100% pure unfiltered raw honey that is free of additives, pesticides or sugar. We are so confident in our never heated or filtered honey that we offer a money back guarantee if you are not 100% satisfied.

At Apiterra our goal is to provide only real food, that is good for you. That why we never heat or filter our honey, to keep it tasty and healthy as it has to be. 

“Filtering” honey means processing the honey to remove very small particles, often even as small as the pollen. With filtration, honey is also often heated to become more liquid in order to make the filtering process easier, meaning that the honey is no longer raw. 

Choosing raw unfiltered honey ensures the most healthy and taste  properties have been preserved.

Only honey that has not been heated or filtered can be labeled “Raw Honey”.

Studies show that 75% of the honey in grocery stores is not real honey because it has been heavily filtered and heated - removing its key properties like pollen. At Apiterra our goal is to provide only real food, that is good for you. That why we never heat or filter our honey, to keep it tasty and healthy as it has to be. 

Yes, in fact all 100% honey is non-GMO because it’s produced by bees, not man.

Since our classic honey is sourced from Eastern Europe, it can’t be certified organic. Because bee flight paths are untraceable, the USDA will not certify honey sourced from the Eastern Europe as organic. 

However, Apiterra does internal and external testing to ensure our honey is clear of commonly used pesticides, herbicides and antibiotics. Our industry-leading testing ensures our honey is of organic-certified quality. 

Our plastic jars are made of recyclable PBA free plastic category PET 2. 

Plastic 2 is one of the safest sorts of plastic for food storage, has superb wear resistance and can withstand heating and freezing.

“Raw Honey” is honey that has not been heated past the point of pasteurization. By not heating the honey, it retains all the natural enzymes and properties it has in the hive.

Pasteurization is the process of heating honey at high temperatures to make it easier for bottling. But this process also kills the nutrients naturally found in honey, like vitamins and enzymes.

There are numerous benefits of natural honey, like vitamins, nutrients, antioxidants, and enzymes. Honey that’s been pasteurized ends up being just another processed sugar! So when you’re choosing a natural sweetener, go for raw honey.

Crystallization is the natural process by which the glucose in honey precipitates out of the liquid honey. 

When honey crystallizes, it is still as nutritious and sweet as ever! In fact, the crystals prove that your honey is high quality and hasn’t been processed. It means that nutritious pollen hasn’t been filtered out and important enzymes haven’t been damaged by pasteurization. Apiterra Honey is more likely to crystallize because we do not filter or heat our honey at high temperatures (pasteurize). 

If your honey crystallizes, simply place the honey jar in warm water and stir until the crystals dissolve.

Many consumers prefer honey to be clear and brilliantly transparent. 

Raw Unfiltered Honey contains fine material (pollen grains, wax, etc.) and air bubbles, which result in a cloudy appearance.

Also, any raw honey naturally crystallizes. Crystallization is the natural process by which the glucose in honey precipitates out of the liquid honey - i.e. it becomes harder with visible sediment.

This a normal and natural process. 

Because our honey is unfiltered, pollens from flowers visited by bees can also be in your bottle of honey.

If you have any allergy, we always recommend consulting your doctor/healthcare professional to be safe.

While honey does contain higher fructose levels, it's relatively low on the glycemic index, making it one of the best sugar substitutes of the bunch.

Also unlike sugar or processed honey, raw honey contains vitamins, nutrients, antioxidants and enzymes

However, people with high blood sugar should still be mindful while eating honey.

Pasteurization is the process of heating honey at high temperatures to make it easier for bottling. But this process also kills the nutrients naturally found in honey like vitamins and enzymes. Raw honey is never, ever pasteurized. 

When substituting honey for granulated sugar in recipes, begin by substituting honey for up to half of the sugar called for in the recipe. For baked goods, make sure to reduce the oven temperature by 25°F to prevent overbrowning; reduce any liquid called for by 1/4 cup for each cup of honey used and add 1/2 teaspoon baking soda for each cup of honey used. Because of its high fructose content, honey has higher sweetening power than sugar. This means you can use less honey than sugar to achieve the desired sweetness.

Honey comes in many colors and flavors. These are called honey varietals and they are determined by the types of flowers the bees visited for nectar. Some are light and sweet; others are dark and bold. Pick the honey you like and enjoy it!

Also, many commercially sold honey is more liquid and will not crystallize because they have been ultra-filtered or heated during their processing. Ultrafiltration removes all particles, and so that honey contains no pollen and other health benefits. 

Since the honey is life! Depending on conditions such as temperature, humidity, type of a flower, time of Harvesting, floral nectar fructose to glucose ratio. Honey may be liquid thin, liquid thick, hard crystal, soft crystal, fine crystal, larger crystal, lighter, darker, and so on. It could never be the same unless you process it! 

Honey stored in sealed containers can remain stable for decades and even centuries! However, honey is susceptible to physical and chemical changes during storage; it tends to darken and loose its aroma and flavor or crystallize. These are temperature-dependent processes, making the shelf life of honey difficult to define. For practical purposes, a shelf life of two years is often stated. Properly processed, packaged and stored honey retains its quality for a long time.

The big key is simple – don't refrigerate the honey. Store it at room temperature (between 70 and 80 degrees). Keep it in a dark place – the light won't ruin your honey but the dark will help it retain it's flavor and consistency better.

It's recommended that you use the original container the honey came in, though any glass jar or food-safe plastic container will work. Avoid storing honey in metal because it can oxidize. 

Also honey should be protected from moisture. 

Nutritionally, 1 tablespoon of honey (21 grams) contains 64 calories and 17 grams of sugar, including fructose, glucose, maltose and sucrose.

The main components of raw honey are:

Natural sugars (glucose and fructose),propolis,Bee polen,Royal jelly,organic acids,protein substances,aromatic compounds,water.

Vegetarians do not eat products that are the result of slaughter. Since bees are not slaughtered, or in some cases harmed at all, in the production of honey, it is indeed considered vegetarian.

Honey is a somewhat controversial food among vegans.

Gluten is a substance present in cereal grains, especially wheat. Honey is naturally free of gluten. It does not contain wheat or its by-products.
