Ripe honey is dry. Too much water and it may ferment.

A bee enzyme. Heat destroys it, so a high number means the honey was never overheated.

How we work
Five steps, and at each one the honey stays the way the bees made it.
01
Bees gather nectar in the Zaamin reserve from spring to autumn. More than 700 plant species grow there, and nothing is sprayed.
02
Honey ripens in the comb. We harvest it ourselves, from our own hives, and never blend it with honey from elsewhere.
03
We do not pass the honey through fine filters, so the pollen stays in. Over time such honey crystallises, and that is normal.
04
Moisture 19% against a limit of 21%, diastase number 10.9 against a minimum of 7. These figures are printed on the back of the jar.
05
Packed in Jizzakh, from 500 g jars to 30 kg pails. Every export shipment has passed quarantine inspection in the destination country.
