Hawthorn Blossom Raw Honey (for affairs of the heart)
This listing is for one jar of Hawthorn Blossom Raw Honey, from The heART of Ritual.
 
Brendan's bee friends have really outdone themselves, seriously! When I was in Ireland last October I contacted Brendan to see how the the summer was for the bees, and he came to me with five jars of liquid gold. He told me the bees were feeding on the hawthorn blossoms that June and good god almight, I have never tasted anything more delightful than this honey. You can literally taste the hawthorn, it is delicious. So, I am sharing what little I received with those of you who truly care for these treasures and will not ruin it by heating it or using it in baking - it needs to be inJoyed in it pure raw state, exactly as it is.

I recommend one generous teaspoon daily (as hawthorn is great for affairs of the heart), but once you taste it you might end up eating the entire jar immediately!
 
This raw honey is from a wonderful native bee husband (and beekeeping teacher) that I met in West Cork, who loves and cares for 25 hives in and around the mountains of Bantry Bay. I was lucky enough to receive an invitation to visit his home where he showed me his 'honey room', the space in which he gathers the combs and extracts the honey by hand. I was tickled by the fact that he leaves a window open in the room at all times for the bees to fly in and out as they please, something that I found deeply touching. I love this very natural method of working harmoniously with the bees and how he extracts the honey from the comb, he even removes a small part of the comb from each frame and returns the rest to the hive for the bees to build upon again. His lifes work with bees is so intimate and respectful and the bees reciprocate!

Themes & Focus for this Collection

Our upcoming seasonal shop opening coincides with the Celtic Festival of Samhain and takes place within the liminal space between the last new moon of the Celtic year in October, astronomical Samhain, and the first new moon of the Celtic New Year in November. It is during this time that the death of the old (year) and the birth of the new (year) occurs. With this we enter the dreamtime cycle of moons; a time honouring the birth that takes place during and after the darkest times. It is a potent time of observing blood, bones, ancestors, (re)connection, introspection, and 'getting to know the lay of the land'...within. Many refer to this time as a 'thinning of the veils', however those of us whose ears are finely tuned, we know that the 'veil' is always thin.
