Australia is globally renowned for its world class honey. The Australian honey bee industry produces between 20,000 and 30,000 tonnes of honey annually and is one of the top ten honey producing countries in the world. Australian honey is highly regarded due to its diverse flavours, unique floral sources, and strong antibacterial properties.

Here’s a more detailed look at what makes Australian honey so good:

1. Unique Flavours:

Australia boasts a vast array of native flowering plants, resulting in honey with distinct and diverse flavours. The honey’s flavour profile is directly influenced by the specific nectar source the bees collect.

2. Antibacterial Properties:

The antibacterial properties are primarily attributed to the high levels of methylglyoxal (MGO) in the honey. Fewsters Jarrah Honey is considered to be one of the top healing honey’s in the world.

3. Clean and Sustainable Production:

Australia’s honey production is known for being produced in a clean and sustainable manner. The use of pesticides and other harmful chemicals in beekeeping is often limited and many beekeepers also prioritise sustainable practices, like minimising the impact on the environment and ensuring the well-being of the bees.

4. Wide Range of Health Benefits:

Australian honey is recognised for its various health benefits. These include antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, as well as potential benefits for wound healing and digestion. Some studies also suggest that Australian honey may have prebiotic properties, promoting gut health.
