HASA Honey is made by native stingless bees in the Ecuadorian rainforest, not the honeybees familiar across Europe. They store their honey in small resin pots rather than wax combs, which is why it is also called pot honey.

It is runnier than ordinary honey, with a higher natural moisture content and a bright, tangy, slightly sour edge. Each colony produces only a fraction of what a honeybee hive makes, so every harvest is naturally tiny.

Enjoy it from the spoon, over yoghurt or fruit, stirred into cooled drinks, or alongside artisan cheese.

Every jar supports the HASA (Hospital de Abejas Sin Aguijón) conservation project, helping to protect Ecuador's native stingless bee species while supporting sustainable beekeeping and rainforest restoration.

Exclusive to the UK – One of the first opportunities to experience this remarkable honey.

  • Enjoy from the spoon, over yoghurt or fruit, or with artisan cheese.
  • Stir into drinks once they have cooled slightly to keep the raw character.
  • Natural crystallisation may occur and does not affect quality.
  • Natural variation in colour, aroma and consistency is normal.
  • Not suitable for infants under 12 months, as with all honey.
  • If you have an allergy to bee products, consume with caution.
  • Do not consume if the safety seal is broken or packaging is damaged.
  • Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

OUR STORY · STINGLESS BEES

“The bees have no sting. They have something rarer.”

Unlike the honey bees familiar throughout Europe, Ecuador's stingless bees are native pollinators that play a crucial role in maintaining rainforest biodiversity. These remarkable insects produce only small quantities of honey each year, making their honey naturally rare and highly prized.

Questions

Frequently asked

Stingless bee honey is honey made by native stingless bees (the Meliponini) rather than conventional honeybees. It’s runnier, tangier and far rarer than ordinary honey. HASA Honey is produced by native stingless bees in the Ecuadorian rainforest.

Unlike conventional honey, HASA Honey is produced by native stingless bees. These remarkable bees produce much smaller quantities of honey, making every harvest naturally limited and highly distinctive.

Yes. “Pot honey” and “melipona honey” are other names for stingless bee honey. The “pot” name comes from the small resin pots the bees store their honey in, rather than the wax combs used by conventional honeybees.

It’s noticeably more liquid, with a higher natural moisture content, and carries a tangy, slightly sour note that regular honey doesn’t have. It’s also produced in far smaller quantities, which is what makes it so rare.

Stingless bee honey is known for its complex, distinctive flavour, sweet with a tangy, slightly sour edge, with subtle variations depending on the surrounding rainforest flora and native bee species.

Stingless bee honey naturally holds more water than conventional honey, so it’s thinner and more pourable. This is completely normal and characteristic of honey made this way.

Because of its higher moisture content, keep it cool and well sealed to hold it at its best. Some people prefer to keep it refrigerated.

Native stingless bees produce only a fraction of the honey made by conventional honeybees, making each harvest exceptionally limited.

Both are prized, small-production honeys with a lot of character. HASA Honey stands apart on flavour and rarity, a runnier texture, a tangy and complex taste, and comes from native Ecuadorian stingless bees.

HASA (Hospital de Abejas Sin Aguijón) is an Ecuadorian conservation initiative dedicated to protecting native stingless bee species, restoring habitats and supporting sustainable honey production.

They are essential pollinators that play a vital role in supporting rainforest biodiversity and the regeneration of native plant species.

Enjoy it straight from the spoon, drizzle it over yoghurt or fruit, stir it into drinks once they’ve cooled slightly, or pair it with artisan cheeses to appreciate its distinctive flavour.

Stingless bee honey has a long history of traditional use. We share that for cultural context only, not as a statement of health benefits.
