Our Honey
What to Expect

Pure. Natural. Sustainably Harvested.

At Marico River Honey Bee Co we bring you the finest premium, choice grade raw wildflower honey, crafted by nature and harvested with care. Sourced from the unspoiled landscapes of the Northwest province in South Africa, our honey is mainly made from acacia nectar and other indigenous flora from the various apiaries, giving it a smooth texture, rich colour, and a delicate taste profile.

What Makes Our Honey Unique?

Viscosity – A Natural Wonder

Our honey is medium-thick to thinner in consistency, making it ideal for drizzling over fresh fruit, stirring into tea, or enjoying straight from the jar. The viscosity of honey varies depending on nectar sources, temperature, and natural sugar composition. Acacia-based wildflower honey, like ours, is known for its lower viscosity compared to other varieties, thanks to its high fructose content. This means it remains naturally liquid for longer, resisting crystallization while maintaining its smooth pourability.

​

Colour – A Rich, Warm Hue

Our wildflower honey has a colour that ranges from orange - cold, deep amber to dark red, reflecting the diverse floral sources from the Northwest. 

Taste – Mild, Floral, and Citrus-Kissed

Every drop of Marico River Honey is a taste of the wild. Expect a mild and floral sweetness, often accompanied by subtle citrus or aniseed notes. This versatile flavour makes it perfect for sweetening beverages, enhancing recipes, or enjoying as a natural treat.

Sustainably harvested & cold processed

We believe in beekeeping practices that honour both the bees and the environment. Our honey is sustainably harvested, ensuring that our bees thrive and continue pollinating the land. We use a cold-processing method to preserve natural enzymes, antioxidants, and nutrients, delivering honey as nature intended—pure and unaltered.

Taste the wild, savour the purity.

Marico River Honey Bee Co. is more than just honey—it’s a taste of South Africa’s untamed beauty. Whether you drizzle it over your breakfast, mix it into your drinks, or gift it to a loved one, every jar holds the essence of nature’s finest work.
