Coffee Honey - Monofloral
Harvested from the coffee blossoms of the mist-laden estates of Coorg, this rare monofloral honey captures the essence of the region’s coffee-growing landscape. Produced during the brief spring bloom at Chikkanahalli Estate, bees gather nectar from delicate white coffee flowers to create this exceptional seasonal honey. Light, fragrant, and delicately floral, Coffee Honey carries gentle citrus notes with a clean finish and a faint lingering hint of coffee, reflecting the purity of the estate and its surrounding ecosystem.
Introducing
Coffee Honey - Monofloral
From the coffee blossoms of Chikkanahalli Estate, Coorg. Floral, delicate, quietly complex.
taste profile
Light amber in colour with a soft floral aroma reminiscent of blooming coffee flowers after rain. Smooth and delicate on the palate, with gentle citrus notes, mellow sweetness and a clean finish, carrying a lingering hint of coffee.
Best with black coffee, sourdough toast, fresh cream, mild cheeses, citrus fruits. Its lighter floral character works especially well with subtle flavours.
seasonality
Coffee blossoms appear only for a short period each spring across the mist-laden hills of Coorg. During this brief flowering window, bees forage predominantly from delicate white coffee flowers before the bloom disappears with the season. Harvested in small batches, each jar reflects the character of that fleeting harvest.
why monofloral ?
During the brief coffee bloom in Coorg, the bees gather nectar predominantly from coffee blossoms during the flowering season, allowing the honey to carry the subtle floral notes and rich character of the flower. Monofloral honey typically contains 45% or more pollen from a single floral species.
Left raw and minimally processed, it retains its natural enzymes, pollen, and much of the floral complexity gathered during the bloom.
storage
Store at room temperature away from direct sunlight. Do not refrigerate. Crystallisation over time is natural and a sign of pure, minimally processed honey. Place the jar in warm water to return it to liquid form. Not suitable for infants under 12 months.
