Sourced from the fleeting bloom of Tamarindus indica in Mexico’s humid, sun-baked orchards, this honey distills tropical terroir into liquid gold. Its Amber hue (> 90 Pfund) glows warm and mature—deeper than light ambers yet bright enough to enliven glazes, beverages and sauces. The color hints at balanced fruit acidity, mineral richness and layered flavor.
Robust flavor & moderate crystallization
Aroma opens with subtle citrus and dried fruit, backed by earthy sweetness. Flavor begins with lively tamarind tang, broadens into mellow golden sweetness, then lingers with dried-fig and date whispers. Thanks to a moderate fructose-to-glucose ratio, the honey stays fluid longer than many ambers; when raw crystallization sets in, it forms medium-fine grains that spread easily and re-liquefy with gentle warming (~38 °C / 100 °F).
Pure, Raw & Unfiltered integrity
Frames are harvested at peak bloom, spun at ambient temperature and gravity-strained—never pasteurized, never ultrafiltered. Live enzymes, pollen and aromatic compounds remain intact, delivering a clean-label ingredient packed with antioxidants and authentic tamarind character.
