Incredible tasting honey

Enjoy pure, unadulterated honey that captures the unique seasonal variations in color and flavor, from your very own backyard.

💬 What people are saying

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
What I love about the Flow hive is the ability to draw honey off a single frame.

This allows my family and friends to enjoy the enormous variety of honey flavours.

Through out this year we have from a single hive sampled honey made from Dogwood, Clover, Tea tree (Manuka), Flowering Gum, American Elm, Lavender and Nisa nectar.

Each of these flowering on and around our property in specific month of the year.

We have even harvested a frame mid winter.

No other honey harvesting system can do this. Plus it does not intrude on the bees themselves.

A perfect system allowing our bees to flourish and honey to share.

🍯 Scientifically proven flavors

A University of Queensland study has confirmed a unique difference between Flow harvested honey and commercially produced, processed honey.

The study, which was published in the Science of Food and Agriculture, found the Flow Frame extraction method yields honey with fresher, cleaner flavors than conventionally extracted honey.

Australian made

Designed and manufactured in Australia using precision laser cutting, from locally grown, sustainably sourced Araucaria.

"What a fabulous well-made product. Extremely well engineered and manufactured. Went together like hand and glove. Love it."
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - Lawrence W.
