Growing on elevated hills of the Central Tablelands at altitudes of 800 to 1100m, the honey produced from Red Stringybark woodlands is one of the finest in Australia. Only once every four to eight years will this tree flower, enlivening our bees to collect her rich, amber nectar during late summer and occasionally into early autumn. Surplus yields are only possible every second or third flowering cycle, meaning that harvests only occur once every decade or two.
Produced in bee-friendly Warré hives from 100% natural comb, this honey is a true rarity with a deep amber gold colour and a rich, spicy, toffee-like flavour with smoky, earthy undertones. This particular harvest is a mix of honey pressed from virgin comb and 5 year aged post brood comb, giving it an incredibly pollen-rich, sumptuous quality and thick, creamy texture.
A truly epicurean terroir honey for savouring. The honey is not only rare, but has an extremely high medicinal activity rating. Our last batch tested at TA39+ (the highest rating Manuka honey tests at around 20+ to 25+).

Australia's best biodynamic wild honey.
Tim and Emma Malfroy practice a holistic approach to beekeeping. Their organic and biodynamic methods have fuelled their desire to increase awareness of the natural world and enhance pollination and diversity throughout the landscape. They produce this golden nectar in a way that is ethical, sustainable and socially responsible.
Wild honey is superior because it captures the unique terroir of the region in which it has been produced. It is also bee-friendly as the honey comb is produced entirely by the bees. In contrast, most commercially available honey is produced from re-used or plastic combs and has been homogenised, micro-filtered and pasteurised, thereby losing the unique flavour and health benefits.
Malfroy’s Gold is produced in permanent small apiaries located in isolated wilderness and woodland areas throughout the World Heritage Blue Mountains and Central Tablelands of NSW, Australia.
