🍶 Its taste and the best time to try it

Its flavour is strong and distinct, different from regular blossom honey. Try a spoon on its own in the morning to taste it properly, stir it into tea or warm milk in place of sugar, or add it to a breakfast plate with bread and cheese.

🏺 Its journey from Egypt's black seed farms

Beekeepers place their hives among black seed flower farms in Egypt, and the bees gather nectar from these flowers to produce a dark honey with a distinct flavour. It reaches Saudi Arabia through facilities approved by the Food and Drug Authority, and is lab-tested at the Honey Quality Laboratory in Riyadh before it goes on sale.

🧪 Why start with the small size?

The 250 g jar is made for a first try of black seed honey, or for comparing it side by side with another honey in your kitchen before committing to a bigger jar. It lasts about two weeks of daily use at breakfast or in a hot drink, and if you like it you can move up to our 500 g or 2 kg jars.

❄️ Keeping it fresh at home

• Store it between 10 and 25°C, away from heat sources.
• Keep it away from moisture, and avoid the fridge or freezer.
• Keep it out of direct sunlight, inside a cupboard.
• Use a glass container, not a metal one, if you decant it.
