Bay of Islands Pohutukawa Honey from Don Buck Honey

Christopher from Massey

I have available Pohutukawa honey from some islands in the Bay of Islands in the Far North. The hives that this honey came from can only be accessed by boat.


Pohutukawa honey is collected from the flowers of the Pohutukawa tree – fondly known as the ‘New Zealand Christmas tree’, since they decorate themselves with masses of red flowers every summer before Christmas. Pohutukawa honey is a very light colored honey, although this batch is darker as it has a dash of Kanuka honey in it which the bees also foraged while the Pohutukawa trees were flowering. It is one of the sweeter varieties of honey we make in NZ. Some people say they can taste a faint salty hint in Pohutukawa honey from the coastal climate the trees grow in.

I’m selling this in 370g pots for $14 or four for $50. Less again if brought in larger quantities. Also available in a Far North Six pot variety pack ($70).

Pickups are from Massey, or orders can be couriered to you with Post Haste. Go to my website to place an order or get in touch!
