Wild Berry Honey (Light Amber)
Source Plant & Botanical Notes
High-elevation meadows and forest edges across northern Mexico explode with spring blossoms from native blackberry (Rubus fruticosus), raspberry (Rubus idaeus), and wild blueberry (Vaccinium spp.) thickets. Honey bees roam these untamed patches, gathering nectar from thousands of tiny, fragrant blooms. Each shrub contributes its own trace of aroma and pigment, weaving a tapestry of berry-infused sweetness unlike any single-floral honey.
Color
Light Amber — clear gold with a faint blush that hints at its berry origin. The hue is bright enough to catch light in a jar yet pale enough for delicate culinary presentations.
Aroma & Flavor
-
Aroma: Fresh field berries, light wildflower, and a touch of raw cane sugar.
-
Flavor: Starts with gentle floral sweetness, rises into notes of ripe blackberry and raspberry, and finishes with a whisper of blueberry skin and vanilla pollen. A balanced acidity keeps it lively rather than cloying, making each spoonful layered and refreshing.
Texture & Crystallization
With a high fructose-to-glucose ratio, Wild Berry Honey stays fluid for months—ideal for drizzling or blending into beverages. When it does set, it cream-crystallizes into fine, spreadable micro-crystals that melt instantly on the tongue.
Origin & Harvest
Collected from uncultivated berry corridors in Chihuahua and Durango where pesticides are absent and biodiversity thrives. Frames are harvested at peak bloom (April–June), spun at ambient temperature, and gravity-strained only—no heat, no ultrafiltration—preserving live enzymes, trace polyphenols, and the subtle berry bouquet.

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.
