Description

Tamarind honey comes from the Centre-Ouest region of Burkina Faso. From November to January, bees forage on the flowers of the tamarind tree, an iconic tree of the African savanna. The honey is harvested by local beekeepers, then jarred without being heated or pasteurised.

This is the honey that won the Gold medal at the London International Honey Awards 2026, awarded after a blind tasting by an international jury.

What you will taste

A brown amber colour and a very liquid texture. Intense tangy, lemony notes right from the nose. On the palate, it is refreshing and reminiscent of English fruit sweets. The most surprising of our honeys: try it if you think all honeys taste the same.

How to enjoy it

In a vinaigrette, a sweet-and-sour sauce or a ceviche. In African cuisine: peanut sauce, mafé or thieboudienne. In iced tea or a cold drink.

Why has my honey crystallised?

Crystallisation is a natural process: over time and in the cold, the glucose in honey forms small crystals. It changes neither the taste nor the quality, and is rather the sign of a honey that has not been heated. To make it more liquid, place the open jar in a warm water bath, without exceeding 40 °C.

How should I store my honey?

At room temperature, away from light and moisture, with the lid tightly closed. There is no need to refrigerate it. It keeps for 2 years.

How can I tell if your honey is pure?

Our honeys are 100% honey: nothing is added (no syrup, sugar or preservatives) and they are neither pasteurised nor heated. Each jar comes from a precise origin, shown on its product page: harvest region and blossoming period.

Why can the colour or texture vary from one jar to another?

Each harvest depends on the blossoming and the season. A raw honey, neither blended nor standardised, may change slightly in colour and texture from one harvest to the next: it is the mark of a natural product.

Is honey suitable for young children?

Like all honey, it is not recommended for children under one year old.

When will I receive my order?

Your order is prepared within 1 to 3 working days in France, then shipped by Colissimo with a tracking number. Delivery is free on orders over €80.
