Raw World Famous Tupelo Honey

Our Raw World Famous Tupelo Honey comes straight from our bees to you. All of our honey is produced by our own bees, and when it’s gone, that’s it for the year. Even The New York Times has been talking about Tupelo Honey.

Will Tupelo Honey sugar?  Eventually all honey will sugar.  Some honey varieties will sugar in weeks if exposed to the right temperatures.   Around 55 degree F is the perfect temperature for honey to sugar, so putting honey in a refrigerator will increase the likelihood of honey sugaring.     Tupelo Honey has a different sugar makeup than other honey varieties, different particle shapes that resist sugaring, which is the reason why Tupelo honey takes a long time to start sugaring.  Tupelo Honey has a very high fructose makeup compared to most honey varieties which doesn’t sugar readilly.  The higher the Tupelo content of the honey the longer it takes to sugar but eventually even 100% Tupelo will sugar.

Raw Honey vs. Non Raw Filtered/Heated Honey:     Most grocery store/big box store honey is ultra filtered and heated which removes almost all the particles naturally found in honey, these particles are the biggest reason for honey to start sugaring and why the filtered, heated honey takes longer too sugar.  Raw honey has not been filtered, only strained to remove the large wax particles, bee parts and any foreign materials that happen to get in the honey during the collection process.  Raw honey will and does sugar and this doesn’t mean its bad or spoiled, it has just changed forms.  Light heaitng, 90 degress F, will change it back to liquid. Placing in your vehicle, not on dash, during warmer months will convert it back to liquid.

Do professional athletes take Tupelo honey as natural engery source?  Yes, many endurance and professional atheletes consume Tupelo Honey as a way to level out their blood sugar which gives them a sustained engery source, not just a quick boost like most honey or sugar based products.  Tupelo honey with a low glycemic, metabolizes slower than most honey which leads to prolonged sustained energy.

Update: The 2025 Tupelo crop is in, and this year’s quality is excellent with a pretty good quantity. Demand is high, so order now and order often!
