When you scan the QR code on your jar or enter the Best Before date, you land here. This is the full, transparent story of your exact batch of raw honey: single-origin, unblended, and straight from our family apiary in Wysall Village, Nottinghamshire.
This is a genuine multifloral honey from the field the hives stood in. The same flower mix ran through the fields around them.
Harvest Details
- Location: Wysall Village, Nottinghamshire
- Type: Premium Raw Multifloral Honey
- Body: Light to medium – smooth and balanced from a legume-rich field
- Main forage: White clover, red clover, bird’s-foot trefoil and lucerne, with chicory in the same sward
What the Bees Foraged On (Wysall Village – Clover Field)
The hives stood in a flowering meadow at Wysall, with a hedge along one side and more of the same mix in the fields around them. This was not one strip beside the apiary. The bees were working the ground under the hives and the fields next to it.
- White clover (Trifolium repens) – the plant you see most often in the sward. A steady nectar source, and the backbone of this jar.
- Red clover (Trifolium pratense) – pink heads among the white. Bees work it. The tubes are long, so it is in the mix, not the whole crop.
- Bird’s-foot trefoil (Lotus corniculatus) – the yellow pea flowers through the grass. Nectar and pollen, and plenty of it in this field.
- Lucerne (Medicago sativa) – purple flower spikes in the same sward. Another nectar plant in the mix.
- Scentless mayweed (Tripleurospermum inodorum) – small white daisies with a yellow centre, growing through the clover. A minor plant, not a main flow.
- Chicory (Cichorium intybus) – blue flowers in the same ground later in the season. Bees visit it. It sits behind the clovers.
- Willowherb – pink flowers along the hedge, not a stand filling the field. Around Wysall that plant can fill a jar on its own. This is not that jar. The named one is willowherb honey from Wysall Village.
This mix created a layered multifloral honey: clover, trefoil and lucerne from the field the hives stood in, with chicory, mayweed and a little willowherb from the hedge.
Tasting Notes
- Aroma: Light and grassy-floral, with a clean clover note.
- Flavour: Mild and sweet from the clovers, with a slightly herbal edge from the trefoil and lucerne. Chicory and the hedge flowers sit in the background.
- Texture: May thicken or set in the cupboard. That is normal for this raw multiflower honey.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this raw honey unpasteurised?
Yes. Our honey is never heated or pasteurised. It is only coarsely strained to preserve all natural enzymes, pollen and beneficial properties.
Where is this raw honey produced?
This specific batch comes from our family apiary in Wysall Village, Nottinghamshire. The hives stood in a clover, trefoil and lucerne mix, with the same flowers in the fields around them. All our honeys are single-origin and fully traceable.
Is this the same as Wysall willowherb honey?
No. Willowherb was on the hedge. The jar named for it is a different harvest. This one is the clover field.
Is local raw honey good for hay fever?
Many of our customers report that regular consumption of local multifloral honey helps reduce seasonal allergy symptoms. This is likely due to the pollen from the plants around the apiary. While scientific evidence is mostly anecdotal, it is a popular natural approach. Not a medicine — consult your doctor if you have severe allergies.
How should raw honey be stored?
Store in a cool, dark place at room temperature (ideally 18–21 °C) in its original jar with a tight lid. A fridge is fine, but the honey will crystallise faster. A cool cupboard keeps it easier to use. Avoid direct sunlight and heat sources. The method is here: how to store honey.
Why does raw honey crystallize?
Crystallisation is a natural process and a sign of true raw honey. It happens because glucose in the honey forms crystals over time. Our raw multifloral honey can crystallise at a natural rate. It is perfectly safe and easy to decrystallise gently in warm water. Why it happens: why honey crystallises. The method is here: how to decrystallise honey safely.
