Jungle Polyflora Honey (ELA)
Source Flora & Botanical Notes
Deep inside Mexico’s lowland jungles, honey bees roam a mosaic of wild blooms:
-
Campanita (Ipomoea pes-caprae)
-
Dzidzilché (Gymnopodium floribundum)
-
Kaatzim (Piscidia piscipula)
-
Tzalam (Lysiloma latisiliquum)
-
Chaká (Bursera simaruba)
Each species flowers in staggered waves from March through July, showering the humid air with nectar-rich fragrance. Bees weave these nectars into a polyfloral honey that captures the jungle’s biodiversity in both taste and aroma.
Color
Extra Light Amber (ELA) — crystal-clear with a pale-gold glow. Its brightness signals low mineral content and careful, unheated handling.
Aroma & Flavor
-
Aroma: Morning dew on tropical orchids, faint vanilla, and a wisp of wild-herb freshness.
-
Flavor: Delicately sweet and superbly balanced. Soft floral notes open the palate, followed by hints of green mango and citrus zest. The finish is clean, airy, and refreshingly subtle—never cloying.
Texture & Crystallization
A naturally high fructose-to-glucose ratio keeps this honey fluid for months. When it finally crystallizes, it sets into ultra-fine, creamy crystals that melt instantly on the tongue—ideal for premium squeeze bottles, drizzles, or creamed-honey applications.
Origin & Harvest
-
Region: Yucatán Peninsula & Campeche rainforest margins
-
Bloom window: March – July, peaking after early-summer rains
-
Method: Frames are removed within 24 h of capping, spun at ambient temperature, and gravity-strained only—no pasteurization, no ultrafiltration. The result: raw enzymes, pollen diversity, and the jungle’s delicate aromatics intact.

Why Choose Jungle Polyflora Honey?
Because a single-blossom honey can’t tell the whole rainforest story. Jungle Polyflora Honey offers layered complexity, extended pourability, and raw integrity—all in a radiant Extra Light Amber hue. Ideal for gourmet brands, mixologists, and wellness formulators who want a touch of tropical biodiversity in every drop.

This honey is presented in its most natural state, completely raw and unfiltered. There’s no pasteurization, no ultrafine filtering, and absolutely no shortcuts. It’s harvested at peak bloom and gently strained to remove large pieces of comb, while preserving all the beneficial elements: live enzymes, antioxidants, natural pollen, and delicate aromatic compounds. The result is pure, unaltered honey, just as nature intended, delivered without heat damage, so every batch retains its full strength and true flavor.
