Munken's Cold-extracted / Raw Forest Honey, 500 g

Organic Swedish Cold-Extracted Raw Honey - Forest Honey

Honey is food created by bees, primarily from flower nectar. This forest honey comes from Ekoparken, Öjesjöbrännan, an area designated for nature conservation. Bees contribute by helping with pollination in this area.

How is Munkens honey made?

Munkens Honey is a Swedish honey that comes from Munkens' own beekeeping operations. Their apiaries are KRAV-certified (Swedish organic certification) and the bees have access to the very best green areas.

Munkens collects the honey from the bees in the morning and extracts it in the afternoon without heating it. The honey is then strained (free-flowing) to remove any wax residue, after which it is stirred for 2 days before being jarred.

They leave approximately 8-12 kg of honey with the bees but need to provide supplementary feeding with an additional 6-8 kg of KRAV certified sugar due to the cold climate in Sweden. This is only given when there is just a brood chamber on the hive during winter, meaning it can never end up in any honey.

Honey is healthy. It contains vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, has a lower GI value than sugar, and tastes sweeter than sugar as well. Honey has been used by humans for thousands of years, both as a sweetener and in natural medicine. Munkens honey is perfect for baking, sweetening beverages, and all types of cooking.
