The Jar — 01
Our Story — 02
Twice a year, Gurung honey hunters descend rope ladders their grandfathers wove, smoke drifting up the rock face, to cut wild comb from colonies that have never known a hive. It is dangerous, patient work — and the only way this honey exists.
We pay harvest crews directly, take only what the cliffs can spare, and leave every colony standing for the next bloom.

Everything worth knowing about wild Himalayan mad honey — where it comes from, how it’s tested, and how it reaches your door.
Mad honey is a rare wild honey produced by Apis laboriosa, the world's largest honeybee, foraging on high-altitude rhododendron bloom in the Himalayas. It has been prized in Nepal for centuries for its deep reddish color, complex bittersweet taste, and legendary potency.
Every jar is harvested from wild cliff hives at around 3,500 meters in Nepal's Annapurna foothills. Gurung honey hunters climb rope ladders twice a year to cut wild comb by hand, and each batch is traceable to its cliff and harvest crew.
Yes. Every harvest is lab-tested for purity and consistency before it ships. The honey is raw — never heated, never blended — and poured in small numbered batches of 250 g jars.
Sparingly. Mad honey is traditionally enjoyed in small amounts — a modest spoonful at a time — and treated with respect. It is noticeably stronger in character than table honey, which is part of its centuries-old legend.
