    Is it 100% Australian honey?

      I don't think the bees are nationalistic.

      • jv on 21/03/2018 - 20:50

        Don't know many that migrate overseas during the winter.

          Our bees get exported to North America to replenish numbers lost due to weather and pests!

          In fact many bees (like 50% of the hive) are intentionally killed by their keepers at winter to prevent the bees consuming their own honey - which is exactly why they make it for themselves in summer.

          But hey, stealing their labours and food supply is felt by most people to be a human entitlement, so killing them en masse doesn't tick the moral outrage much either.

          @thevofa: someone close to the bee community should sue them…..

          And yet they just keep making it!!

          A fool and their honey are soon parted.

          AFAIK they can't brush their teeth anyway, so we're doing them a favour.

      Harris farm is one of the few that sell 100% australian honey, they are also on the https://www.beethecure.com.au/honey-map/

          That's not what's meant by yellow box honey.

    • PJC on 22/03/2018 - 00:03

      Central West NSW, but I wish I could see the entire label.

      • 1bug on 22/03/2018 - 00:14

        The right side of the label says "Grant Lockwood keeps his bees in stands of yellow box gum trees, around Lucknow in the Central West of NSW. The natural honeycomb is gently warmed to extract honey with a smooth and buttery finish".

        • PJC on 22/03/2018 - 00:15

          Yes, I read that. But I don't think all the label is visible to us. I'm just a bit sceptical. This product's label says at the front "Australian peanuts" but the back says if Australian peanuts are in short supply they use Argentinian.

          @PJC:
          The label only covers half the tub. If you zoom in on the picture you can almost see the entire label (except you can't read the edges due to the curvature). There's no label at the back.

        • PJC on 22/03/2018 - 00:29

          @1bug: Yes, it does seem to be 100% Australian honey. I'll look out for it, the price is fair.

      Hi there, I’m in a industry and know beekeepers in NSW had a very good YB honey season (usually it comes once in 3-5 years).
      So, it’s probably the reason.

  • joeiwu on 21/03/2018 - 21:46

    Do new customers get $15 cash back on their first order? If so, its an awesome deal! Can anyone confirm?

  • CaffeinatedTech on 21/03/2018 - 23:37

    Bah, outside delivery area.

    Thanks for posting OP.

  • Wolfofwallstreet on 22/03/2018 - 01:08

    How is this compare to the more expensive Manuka honey from New Zealand?

    • carwashhair on 22/03/2018 - 08:17

      Bees make this.

      • DarwinBoy on 22/03/2018 - 10:06

        More importantly Australian bees using Australian trees.

  • homersyd on 22/03/2018 - 01:46

    thanks OP! have been looking some good local honey rather than the crap they sell at colesworth

  • Dr-StrangeLove on 22/03/2018 - 07:01

    Recently saw in a documentary that the production of honey is decreasing worldwide but interestingly the price still remains the same and sometimes less like this one. Don't know what to make of it.

    • cvas on 22/03/2018 - 16:05

      Coz the cheaper stuff supplies the excess demand. That is cut with corn syrup.

    We do not use any artificial colours, flavourings or preservatives.

    ^ this could mean to say, "we use natural colours, flavourings and preservatives"

    ( which could also mean added sugar (which is a natural product itself )

      how many left?

  • [Deactivated] on 22/03/2018 - 15:41

    honey is animal cruelty. I await the day the bees grow aware and build giant robots to attack their oppressors.

    • bargainparker on 22/03/2018 - 16:17

      animal insect

      I see a lot of human oppressors. Now just to find a way to build that robot.

    Note that their online specials are not necessarily in-store. I've had to ask the online chat person a few times before venturing out to their store which isn't very close. They've told me that the price for my closest store (Boronia Park, NSW) for this honey is $13.69.

    Store-specific specials are listed here.

    • PJC on 28/03/2018 - 16:33

      Good information.

    • 1bug on 29/03/2018 - 01:05

      That may be true for some stores, but I noticed the deal in store at Pennant Hills on 21 March even though it wasn't listed in the store-specific specials for that week. When I checked online, it was also listed there.

      The deal was still available in my local store on 26 March.
