HIMALAYAN HONEY
Our
honey are collected from domestic bee
colonies
of high Himalaya above 2000m.
We make every effort
to ensure that the bee products reach you at their Organic best. Organic
honey is extracted by the 'cold press' method without the use of heat.
This helps preserve the pollen and the enzymes that occur naturally in
honey.
We also collects from the wild bee colonies Apis Laboriosa, Apis dorsata
and Apis cerana found in the isolated forest in Himalayan mountains of
Nepal. Wild bee and makes it combs on high cliff over hangs. The honey
hunters are a tribe of Mongol in Nepal who follow the tradition of honey
hunting, a tradition passed down since generations. The bees are driven
away from the honeycomb by smoke. Besides being an economic activity
harvesting cliff honey, honey hunting also involves special rituals and
satisfies the leisure requirements of isolated mountain people. Hunting
cliff honey is a dangerous activity and most of the cliffs are named and
remembered by the names of honey hunters who died during honey
harvesting. This culture does not allow the total eradication of bee
nests but rather supports the sustainable presence and multiplication of
cliff bees. |
