Pickering Brook Pure Marri

TA42 Monofloral Marri Honey

There’s a quiet little corner of Pickering Brook where the orchards meet the Marri forest.

At the edge of the property, two dogs sit beneath a tree looking down over the orchard, keeping watch over their patch of the Perth Hills, as dogs tend to do. Beyond them, the land rises into stands of magnificent Marri, and tucked amongst it all are our bees.

It’s the scene captured on our label, and the place behind this rather extraordinary honey.

This apiary follows the rhythm of the land. In spring, the bees work the flowering orchards below, bringing us our seasonal fruit blossom honey. Then summer arrives, the orchard flowering fades and the surrounding Marri forest comes alive.

And for a little while, Marri is all there is.

The result is our Pickering Brook Pure Marri. A true monofloral honey sourced from Marri blossom and shaped by this beautiful pocket of country.

But there’s something else rather special hiding inside this jar.

Laboratory tested at TA42, this harvest has achieved medicinal-grade activity, placing it amongst the higher-activity Marri honeys. It’s a remarkable natural quality from a honey that begins so simply: bees, summer blossom and a healthy Marri forest.

Golden, smooth and beautifully full-bodied, it carries the distinctive character of pure Marri, rich sweetness, depth and a lingering finish that invites another spoonful.

Unfiltered and unprocessed, it remains raw honey just as it left the hive, preserving the character of the place and season from which it came.

So when you see those two dogs sitting beneath the tree on the label, know that the scene is real.

Somewhere in Pickering Brook, they’re still looking down over their orchard. The Marri forest still stands behind them. And when summer comes around, our bees are there too.

Pure Marri. TA42. From one very special corner of the hills.
