Handmade farm honey

Honey from our own apiary

Telkabad is honey in its simplest form: harvested by hand in our small home apiary, poured into the jar, and nothing else. No heating, no blending, nothing added.

Pure honey, nothing else

Our apiary is small and tended by hand. We take only what the bees can spare, and the honey goes straight from the comb to the jar.

Our own apiary

Every hive stands with us. We know each colony and look after them ourselves, year after year.

Raw and untreated

No heating and no filtering that strips away what is natural. The honey reaches you as it left the hive.

Small batches

We harvest only a few times a year. The quantity is limited – and that is rather the point.

Two kinds – one honey

Telkabad comes in two forms. The contents and the properties are identical. The only difference is the texture, and which one you choose is purely a matter of preference.

Kind 1

Soft honey

Runny and free-flowing. At home in tea, over yoghurt and in baking – anywhere the honey needs to move.

Kind 2

Set honey

Firm and creamy to spread. Made for the morning slice, and for anyone who wants the honey to stay where it is put.

No difference in quality. All natural honey sets over time – a sign that it is genuine and untreated, not that anything is wrong. Both kinds have exactly the same properties.

Why the taste varies

Every honeybee able to live in Sweden is of one and the same kind. So it is never the bee that decides the taste – it is the flowers around it.

One kind of bee

The bees in our apiary are the same as every other bee in the country. The difference never lies in the bee.

The flowers decide

Our bees forage freely across whatever is in bloom around the farm. What they find is what you taste.

A blended floral taste

Because our honey comes from many different flowers, the result is a rounded blend of them all – never a single note.
