What flowers and plants do the bees gather nectar from in Raktbeej Honey?
Saranda Forest, Jharkhand and Abujhmarh Forest, Chhattisgarh have rich floral diversity such as Tilai, Harin Hara, Wild Jamun, Karanj, Neem and Mahuwa. This rich and diverse forest flora, particularly in the spring months (April–May), blossoms and supports Apis dorsata (giant wild honeybee), which forages on the nectar of wildflowers and medicinal plants, producing dark, smoky, and robust forest honey often referred to as black honey.
Which species of honeybees produce Raktbeej Forest Honey?
Apis dorsata, the giant wild honeybee, is the primary honey producer in Saranda and Abujhmarh forests. Nesting on tall trees, they forage on diverse wild flora, producing dark, nutrient-rich honey known for its medicinal properties, unique flavor, and unprocessed, natural purity.
In what ways is Raktbeej Forest Honey unique compared to commercial honey?
Raw and Unprocessed:
This Forest Honey is raw, unprocessed, unheated, and minimally filtered. This preserves the natural pollen content and beneficial enzymes that support overall health whereas mostly commercial honey is pasteurized, filtered, and processed, which removes beneficial enzymes and pollen
Sourced from Indigenous Wild Honeybees:
It is produced by native Indian wild honeybees (Apis dorsata) , unlike most commercial honey which comes from domesticated Italian honeybees (Apis mellifera).
Collected from Deep Forests, Not Farmlands:
Wild honeybees build their hives high in trees deep inside the forest and collect nectar from a variety of wild forest flowers. In contrast, domesticated bees are kept in boxes near crop fields and primarily gather nectar from pesticide-treated crops—potentially introducing chemical residues into the honey.
Free from Pesticide Contamination:
Since the wild bees forage in untouched forest areas, the honey is less likely to contain pesticides or agricultural chemicals, making it a more natural and safer choice.
Naturally Varies in Taste, Color, and Texture:
The flavor, aroma, color, and texture of Deep Forest Honey naturally vary with the changing forest flora across seasons. In comparison, commercial honeys are often blended to maintain a uniform appearance and taste.

What is raw and unprocessed honey?
Raw and Unprocessed honey means it hasn't been pasteurized, heated or heavily filtered. It retains pollen, propolis, and enzymes, making it more beneficial for health.
How does this honey taste, and what color is it?
Raktbeej Forest honey has a bold, smoky taste, dark amber to black color, and a rich, earthy aroma with hints of wildflowers.
Why some honey crystallizes over time?
Honey is primarily made from flower nectar and is a combination of glucose and fructose. Honeybees collect nectar from flowers and store it in their hive to make honey. Each type of flower has a different glucose-to-fructose ratio, and these ratios determine the crystallization of honey.
Honey crystallizes if the glucose content is high; similarly, honey may not crystallize if the fructose content is higher. So, crystallization depends on the types of flora the honeybees have foraged from. For example, mustard flower honey may crystallize in 7–10 days, whereas Kalsi flower honey may not crystallize.
"If Glucose / Fructose ratio is >=1 ; Honey may crystalize.
Similarly, If Glucose / Fructose ratio is < 0.9 ; Honey may not crystalize."
So why Does Honey Crystalize?
Glucose is less soluble than fructose in water, so when glucose is high, it tends to form crystals faster. Fructose is more soluble, so honey with higher fructose crystallizes slower or stays liquid longer Some of the examples of
High Crystallization Honeys:
- Mustard Honey: Glucose content is high → crystallizes quickly (within 7-10 days)
- Rapeseed (Canola) Honey: Very high glucose content →crystallizes rapidly
- Sunflower Honey: Moderate to high glucose →crystallizes relatively fast
- Clover Honey: Known for fast crystallization due to higher glucose
- Alfalfa Honey: Tends to crystallize quickly due to sugar composition
Crystallization should never be considered as a purity parameter; it is completely normal and does not mean the honey has gone bad or it is adulterated honey!

Does it crystallize?
Yes, like all raw honey, Raktbeej Forest honey can crystallize over time due to its natural glucose content. Crystallization is a sign of purity, not adulteration.
Is it safe to give this honey to a child under 1 year old?
As per FSSAI (Food Safety and Standards Authority of India) regulations, honey is not recommended for consumption by infants under 12 months, to prevent the risk of infant botulism.
Can diabetic patient consume honey?
Honey is a natural sweetener, but it still contains sugar in form of glucose and fructose. So, consuming any type of honey can raise blood sugar level. Diabetic people should consult the doctor before including honey in their diet.
Is this honey sourced from a third party?
No, we do not source honey from third parties. We have a dedicated team of skilled honey harvesters who travel from forest to forest during the harvesting season. Our harvesters work closely with the local and tribal communities of Saranda and Abujhmarh forests, respecting their traditional knowledge and sustainable practices. This collaboration not only ensures high-quality, pure honey but also supports the livelihoods of these communities, empowering them and preserving their cultural heritage while promoting environmentally friendly honey harvesting.
Why this honey is more expensive than regular honey?
This honey is harvested in remote areas of Jharkhand and Chhattisgarh with traditional methods, making it rarer and more labor-intensive to collect.
What is the best way to store this honey?
Store honey in a tightly sealed container at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep it in a cool, dry place—there’s no need to refrigerate, as cold temperatures can cause it to crystallize faster.
How is forest honey different from dew honey?
Forest honey is made by bees that collect nectar from the flowers of trees and wild plants found in forests. In contrast, dew honey (also called honeydew honey) is produced when bees gather honeydew—a sweet, sticky substance excreted by insects (like aphids) that feed on tree sap, especially from conifers and oaks.
Both are natural and healthy, but dew honey is typically rarer and has a more intense, mineral-rich profile. Forest honey is more floral and versatile in culinary use.
