Frequently asked questions
Why does our honey crystallize?
Our honey crystallizes because it's pure and natural. Crystallization is a natural process where sugars separate and form crystals over time. It's a sign of authenticity, not spoilage. Factors like storage conditions, floral source, and temperature can influence this process. Crystallized honey is safe to eat and retains its nutrients and taste. To return it to liquid, simply warm the jar in warm water. Enjoy the natural goodness!
How can I de-crystallize my honey?
To de-crystallize your honey, place the jar in warm water (35°C-43°C) for 15-30 minutes, stirring gently. Alternatively, place it in a sunny spot. Avoid using a microwave or boiling water, as excessive heat can damage the honey's nutrients. Store at room temperature to prevent future crystallization.
What makes Kanguri Honey the first luxury honey ever!
Kanguri Bush Honey comes straight from hives of the pure Ligurian bees busily working on Kangaroo Island which is the world’s only sanctuary for the Ligurian Honey Bee.
Distinctive Flora and Flavour
Kanguri raw honey’s initial flavour is from eucalypti. Specific other Kangaroo Island botanicals are
made available to the bees and are essential contributors in the development of the luxurious and
richly layered flavours that distinguish Kanguri raw honey from all others.
The Exceptional Properties of Ligurian Bees and Kanguri Luxury Honey
Ligurian bees demonstrate an extraordinary capacity for identifying and gathering nutrients that are
vital for the development and wellbeing of young bees. This exceptional trait enables the colony to
sustain impressive growth, with hive populations rising from approximately 20,000 during the winter
to over 60,000 in the spring. The richness of these nutrients and the bees’ ability to thrive make
Kanguri honey truly stand out as a superfood among superfoods. This distinctive quality underpins
the assertion that Kanguri is the world's first luxury honey, offering an unparalleled standard in both
taste and nutritional value.
Natural processing and care to protect goodness
Kanguri Bush Honey is raw and is bottled at the hive’s natural temperature. It is normal for the
honey to crystallise in cold weather, and it will return to a liquid state if gently warmed.
A healthy white sugar substitute
Kanguri raw honey can be used as a healthy substitute for white sugar, transforming tea or coffee
into a luxurious beverage-it will not only enhance the drink flavour but also add the unique health
benefits this honey provides over white sugar.

3. Sugar Gum - Known for its light color with a mild, clean and sweet flavor, often compared to the taste of sugar cane.
4. Cup Gum Honey - This is a rare and delicate honey of Kangaroo Island, as the Cup Gum tree flowers infrequently, making this a special and limited-edition honey. The honey is know for its sweet, buttery flavour with notes of butterscotch and caramel.
5. Creamed Honey - Is a form of pure honey that has been carefully processed and deliberately crystallized to achieve a thick, smooth and spreadable texture similar to butter.
