Q1. What is honey?
A. Honey is a sweet, viscous liquid produced by bees from the nectar of flowers. Bees collect nectar, store it in their honey sac, and break down sugars with enzymes. The honey is then deposited in a honeycomb within the hive, where it ripens and is stored as food for the bees.
Q2. Is honey healthy?
A. Honey has been used for centuries as a natural sweetener. It contains antioxidants, minerals, and small amounts of vitamins. While it offers some health benefits, it’s still sugar, so consume it in moderation.
Best is to consume Honey according to the season. Just as is suggested for the vegetables & fruits. Consult TABARUK Farms or your trusted farmer for more information.
Q3. What are the different types of honey?
A. Honey comes in many varieties, each with its unique aroma, flavor, color, taste & properties depending on the floral source.

Q4. How should I store honey?
A. Honey is best stored in a cool, dark place. A pantry shelf is perfect. Don’t refrigerate honey, as this can cause it to crystallize faster.
Q5. Does honey ever spoil?
A. Honey has natural antibacterial properties and can be stored for years under proper conditions, if properly harvested.
It won’t spoil in the traditional sense, but it may crystallize, which is a natural process that doesn’t affect its quality.
Crystallized honey can be gently warmed by placing the jar in warm water (less than 40° Celsius) to return to a liquid state. Best is, however to consume as the nature intends.
