HASA Stingless Bee Honey (Melipona) - Amazonian Native Honey

A Rare Amazonian Honey from Native Stingless Bees

Sourced from the Ecuadorian Amazon through the HASA (Hospital de Abejas Sin Aguijón) project, this remarkable honey is produced by native stingless bees that have coexisted with the rainforest for thousands of years.

Unlike conventional honey, stingless bee honey is produced in extremely small quantities and reflects the extraordinary biodiversity of the forest from which it comes. Naturally more liquid, with complex floral and slightly fermented notes, it offers a unique glimpse into one of the world's most diverse ecosystems.

Through HASA, more than 170 families are helping protect native bee species while creating sustainable livelihoods rooted in conservation, traditional knowledge, and regenerative land stewardship.

Why This Honey Is Different

• Produced by Native Stingless Bees
  Melipona bees produce only a fraction of the honey of conventional honeybees, making each harvest exceptionally rare.
• From the Ecuadorian Amazon
  Collected from one of the most biodiverse regions on Earth, where bees forage across a rich variety of native flowering plants.
• Produced Within Chakra Agroforestry Systems
  The same traditional farming systems that produce our cacao also provide habitat for native pollinators, supporting biodiversity rather than monoculture.
• Directly Supporting Indigenous Communities
  Every bottle contributes to community-led conservation initiatives and the protection of native bee species.
• Rarely Available Outside Source
  Historically consumed locally within Amazonian communities, only very limited quantities are made available beyond the region.

A Different Way to Enjoy Honey

Due to its rarity and limited production, stingless bee honey is often enjoyed in small amounts.

• Enjoy by the spoonful
• Add a few drops to tea or cacao once cooled
• Use as part of your daily ritual
• Pair with herbal infusions or other Amazonian botanicals

Taste & Texture

Expect a lighter, more liquid consistency than conventional honey, with delicate floral notes and a subtle natural acidity. These characteristics are a hallmark of authentic stingless bee honey and vary according to seasonal flowering and forest conditions.
