We at Honey Pacifica have over 25 years of experience in the
raw honey business giving us the knowledge to get you the
highest quality raw honey available. In order to preserve
the delicate flavors of the raw honey we make each flavor
ourselves. We drive our bees to various bee sites (aka: apiarys) located throughout sunny Southern California. The bees will fly for miles
finding the blooms and bringing the nectar back to the
hive. The flavor of the honey depends on the nectars blooming at that particular time. When the hives are full of honey, we truck them back to
the Honey Pacifica warehouse in Long Beach. There, we
run the frames through an extracting machine which slices all the
honey filled wax off the frames, which then flows into
the barrels. After the wax and other raw particles float to
the top, we skim them off. What is left is raw,
unheated, unfiltered honey. To observe the raw honey process for Honey Pacifica watch the video below: Honey Pacifica: The Beekeeper's Life
For those customers looking
for the most raw honey available, is our thick hand spooned unheated
Cold Packed™ honey. Below is a video of our friend James from the organic foods group Rawsome describe why raw unheated honey such as ours is such a rare and valuble product:
For those looking for a
more regular raw honey, we
gently heat the honey to 100°. This is just enough heat to get it through the
bottler, without harming the delicate flavors or
nutritional benefits of the honey. For an added kick to
the raw honey, we add natural fruit extracts and create
raw flavored honeys.
If you are interested in cooking with honey or simply adding it to your diet, we have made up some delicious recipes. We have also compiled more information
to satisfy your intellectual curiousities about bees or raw unheated honey.
