Why we started

We wanted to know where our honey comes from

We understand how frustrating it is not to know what you are buying, with something as pure as honey. We wanted to know too.

So we went looking for beekeepers who do not just supply their honey, but can also tell you where it comes from. With Humelie, you know who is behind your honey, and you taste the character of every harvest.

What is raw honey?
The problem

Supermarket honey always tastes the same

To get there, it is blended, heated and made anonymous. That removes exactly what makes each honey unique: the flower, the region and the season.

Blended

Usually a blend of honey from several countries. So every jar tastes the same.

Heated

Often heated so it always stays runny. Strong heating destroys most of the natural enzymes.

Anonymous

The jar shows at most the countries of origin. Nowhere does it say which beekeeper the honey comes from.

What we stand for

Real honey should be the standard. Not the alternative.

Our beekeepers

Honey with an address

We know our beekeepers by name. Their name, their region and their harvest are on the jar. And every batch is lab-tested before it reaches your table.

Questions about Humelie

Frequently asked questions

Can't find your question? Just email us, we are happy to help.

Get in touch
What does raw and unblended mean?

Raw means the honey is extracted from the comb, coarsely strained and not finely filtered. It is never warmed above 38 °C. That way the pollen and enzymes are kept.

Unblended means: one harvest, from one beekeeper. Never a blend of honey from different countries.

Where does your honey come from?

Every jar is traceable to the beekeeper. The Dutch wildflower honey comes from Dirk in Groningen, the Acacia honey from Radu and Flavia in Romania and the Creamed wildflower honey from Henk in Germany. The side of the label tells you who made the honey, where and when.

Is the honey tested?

Yes. Every batch is lab-tested before it reaches your table.

Why is your honey more expensive than supermarket honey?

Supermarket honey is usually a blend from several countries, often heated so it stays runny for a long time. Our honey comes from one harvest by one beekeeper we know by name. You pay for a small harvest you can trace, not for a blend from the global trade.

Which honey suits me?

Can't decide? Order the Tasting set. It contains all three of our honeys. Taste them side by side and choose your favourite.

What if I am not happy?

Can't taste the difference from your old jar? Let us know within 30 days of receiving it. Then you get your money back, even if the jar is already open: get in touch with us. You can read exactly how it works in our refund policy.
