Unfiltered Raw Honey
1kg (2.2 lbs) unfiltered raw honey in an environmentally friendly PET jar. Every drop of Wendell Estate Honey is sustainably harvested from our own bees and packaged only fresh on our farm within hours of coming off the beehives and being spun from of the honeycomb. This is completely raw, unheated and unfiltered prairie-blossom honey: Nothing added; nothing removed. It contains all the naturally healthy bee enzymes, pollen, and organic compounds that give raw honey its many health benefits.
Healthy goodness for the whole family
Unlike sweets containing processed sugars, raw honey is a treat that parents can let their kids enjoy guilt-free. At the same time evidence grows for the harmful effects of processed sugars, studies are revealing that raw honey has the opposite effects. From heart disease, to diabetes, to obesity to possibly even arthritis and cancer, raw honey replaces sugar’s harms with health benefits. Unfiltered raw honey is an excellent energy source for fueling your workouts since it provides healthy energy while promoting weight loss in active individuals.
The fresh, mild flavors make Wendell Estate Honey a great choice for baking, granola bars, or for sweetening tea and cold drinks alike. Try it with unsweetened yogurt, fresh fruit, unsweetened dark chocolate, your favourite cheese, any fresh baking, and, of course, toast. Kosher. Halal. Guaranteed to arrive fresh and delicious when you buy directly from us.
Why choose our 1kg (2.2 lb) jar of Unfiltered Raw Honey?
This is our best-value jar for families or people who indulge in our honey’s sweet healthy goodness regularly. For a single 1kg jar, you pay only $4.40/100g of raw unfiltered honey, delivered to your door. The savings improve if you order larger boxes: for a full case (8 1kg jars) you pay only $3.08/100g. Please read our storage instructions before making large orders.
We chose PET (Polyethylene terephthalate) packaging for this economically sized jar due to its light weight, food safety profile, and ease of recycling. Compared to a similarly sized glass jar, our PET jars have a lower carbon footprint if transportation is considered (a significant consideration for an ecommerce business based in a remote area).

1kg Unfiltered Raw Honey FAQ
Short answer: the packaging. Every jar of Wendell Estate Honey contains only the finest honey our bees produce in the season, packaged fresh by us on the day the honey is spun from the honeycomb (usually the day after bringing the honey in from the beehives). The PET plastic jar used for our 1 kg (2.2lb) jar of unfiltered raw honey reduces the costs compared to our glass jars. Our idea is to give people the most honey for their money with our largest jar. Because we package the honey directly as it comes in from the apiaries and donât blend or batch it, there may be slight differences between any two jars of Wendell Estate Honey, but we guarantee every jar lives up to our highest standards.
Raw honey ages and degrades gradually at room temperature, decreasing both its health benefits and flavor profile. To preserve its optimal qualities, we recommend that you keep a quantity of raw unfiltered honey that you expect to consume within 2-3 months at room temperature, ensuring a soft and easily spreadable texture. For longer-term storage exceeding 2-3 months, we advise you to store our honey in a sealed container in either the refrigerator (good) or freezer (best). Unlike meat, creamed honey can be frozen and warmed repeatedly without compromising its quality. Because melting our unfiltered raw honey would damage the uniquely smooth texture, itâs best to just let it warm gradually at room temperature (rather than, say, in a microwave). We have more detailed raw honey storage instructions here, and raw honey aging here.
1 kilogram (2.2 pounds) is 48 servings of 1 tablespoon (21g) of raw unfiltered honey. Thatâs enough for about 48 luscious pieces of toast and honey or 150 cups of tea sweetened with honey. Looking at it from an energy perspective thatâs 2,880 calories, or the equivalent of 21 bottles of Gatorade (591ml/20oz; Fruit punch flavor; $3.25/bottle). There are two main differences between 1kg (2.2lbs) of raw unfiltered honey and Gatorade. One is the price: 1kg of raw unfiltered honey is cheaper than 21 bottles of Gatorade. The second is that Gatorade is sweetened with sugar and all its negative health effects, while raw unfiltered honey has health benefits that are almost the opposite of sugarâs harmful effects, including promoting healthy weight loss/maintenance rather than obesity.
One of the most impressive qualities of raw honey is that it never spoils in a way that would cause you harm or illness if you eat it. Though raw honey very slowly degrades and loses health benefits as the enzymes break down at room temperature, as mentioned above, it will not become harmful in any way. Unfiltered raw honey may contain natural yeasts. As the honey absorbs moisture from the air, over weeks to months these yeasts may cause the honey to ferment. Fermented honey can be detected by a âyeastyâ odor, and often a frothy appearance. Though many find the taste of fermented honey unpleasant, eating it is completely harmless. You might even use fermented honey to make either mead or a kombucha-like beverage. I should mention that infants less than one year of age should not eat either raw or pasteurized honey.
