For international orders, delivery timelines vary depending on your location. Once shipped, we’ll send you a FedEx tracking number so you can follow your order along the way.

What does TA+ mean?

Total Activity (TA) of a honey is a representation of how good it is at killing bacteria. Therefore, the higher the TA rating, the higher the antimicrobial strength. Any honey with a TA rating of 10 or higher may have beneficial antimicrobial benefits and these benefits increases as the TA level rises. 

You can also check out our honeys testing results here. 

 

How long is the shelf life?

All our honeys are labelled with an expiry date as it is a labelling requirement for food goods. However, pure & raw honey will not expire as organisms that spoil our food won't be able to survive due to honeys' biological makeup (low pH and sugar content), as well as the bees' honey-making process. 

 

How should I eat honeycomb?

You can eat it in any way that you prefer! As it is or spread some onto toast or add it on your waffles/muesli. We at The Honey Colony love eating it with cheese and crackers!
