The Original Pitcairn Island Pure Honey
Purity Meets Tradition
Discover the unspoiled splendor of Pitcairn Island when you savor the exquisite richness of our premium honey selections.
In the pristine expanse of Pitcairn Island, nestled in the South Pacific, lies a treasure trove of nature's bounty – its bees. Renowned for their exceptional health and gentle demeanor, these bees produce honey of unparalleled quality. A pioneering apicultural scientist, drawn by the allure of Pitcairn's bee population, discovered their remarkable docility, enabling work with minimal protection. This revelation sparked the prospect of exporting live Queen bees, adding another dimension to Pitcairn's economic potential.
With approximately 60 hives dotting the island's landscape, the capacity for expansion looms large, promising a hive count potentially fivefold. The honey harvested here owes its rich, intense flavor to the diverse array of blooms – mango, lata, passion flower, guava, and rose apple – flourishing abundantly across Pitcairn. In 1998, the UK's Department for International Development invested in an apiculture program, empowering Pitcairn's beekeepers with training and conducting thorough disease assessments. This support opened doors for Pitcairn's honey to reach markets beyond its shores,
Despite its diminutive size, Pitcairn boasts a botanical cornucopia unmatched elsewhere, with an assortment of fruits and flowers gracing its fertile soil. This unique floral tapestry, including guavas, papayas, and passion flowers, contributes to Pitcairn's honey, coveted for its exquisite taste. Even esteemed palates, including that of the Queen of England, have found delight in its flavor.
For those curious about honey importation regulations, Pitcairn Island stands as a beacon of compliance, listed among the countries deemed acceptable by New Zealand's Ministry for Primary Industries (MPI).
