Origin & Harvest:
Lychee Honey is produced by Honey Bees that gather nectar from the blossoms of Lychee trees (Litchi chinensis). These trees are treasured for their delicate spring flowers and sweet, aromatic fruit. However, their blooms depend on specific climatic conditions. To bloom successfully, lychee trees require exposure to cold temperatures—at least 100 hours in winter—followed by warm, humid conditions to thrive. The flowers bloom early in the spring, and fruiting occurs in early summer, providing a rich nectar source for bees.
Lychee Tree Adaptability:
Lychee trees are surprisingly adaptable, tolerating short periods of near-freezing weather, although they thrive best in warm, tropical climates with high humidity. This unique combination of environmental factors contributes to the exceptional flavor and quality of Lychee Honey.
Pairings & Uses:
Lychee Honey pairs beautifully with teas, tropical desserts, and fruit-based dishes. It is also an excellent choice for drizzling over yogurt, pancakes, or fresh fruit, adding a burst of exotic sweetness to your meals.
Raw & Unfiltered:
As with all our honey, Lychee Honey is RAW and unfiltered, preserving its natural enzymes, nutrients, and rich flavor, unless otherwise specified or requested.
