Miellerie Honey
Regular price $17.00 Save $-17.00Miellerie honey hails from the Tasmania wilderness where Frenchman, Yves Ginat, marries the french technique of soft setting honey with the extraordinary flower nectars of Tasmania.
Miellerie honey is unprocessed and unheated, thus maintaining the honey's optimum natural aroma, health qualities, and characteristic crystals. Each of the honeys in the Miellerie range are soft set, with a smooth, velvety texture that melts literally in your mouth (or on your sourdough crumpet)!
As an apiarist, Yves nurtures his bee community using organic and biodynamic beekeeping practices to maintain health and harmony from the hive to the jar. Essential to the integrity of Miellerie is their trade practice of cold extraction of the honey from the comb to harness the vitality, aroma, flavour, colour and texture of the exquisite nectars from the pristine Tasmanian forests.
If you love the caramel created when you boil a can of Condensed Milk, you'll go wild for Blue Gum honey. It's nature's version of caramel.
Leatherwood honey is quite simply an absolute taste sensation. A leatherwood tree has to be over 80 years old before it yields any blossoms and quite frankly you can taste that ancient wisdom in the honey. I tell our customers that visit Queen B that Leatherwood honey is "like being punched in the mouth with a bunch of flowers"... it is incredibly aromatic and floral and will be like nothing else you've ever tasted. Leatherwood honey is amazing to use where it's floral nature can be hero'ed... like dressings, savoury marinades or cakes/biscuits with only a few ingredients.
From late October to early January Lake Pedder yields the bees their favourite wild flower nectars (Banksia, Tea Tree, Button grass, Melaleuca, Peppermint) from the heart of Tasmania’s world heritage listed forests. If you love strong flavoured and manuka honey's, you'll love Lake Pedder's Nectar.

Restoring Hand Balm With Lavender - 60g
Regular price $30.00 Save $-30.00Nina’s Bees Hand Balm is lovingly handcrafted at a boutique apiary in the Blue Mountains, using only the finest organic and/or cold pressed oils and our own beeswax. This rich, 100% pure botanical hand balm provides long lasting nourishment and protection, leaving your skin feeling silky and moisturized.
My inspiration for this product was rough, gardeners hands. Being a passionate gardener, I often go to our garden with a cup of tea to enjoy the serenity of the moment and the beauty of flowers. I would spot a weed and fool myself, saying “just this one” …an hour later I would find myself having removed the weeds, re-potted a few flowers, and dug a new hole for a seedling. All without gloves. Needless to say my hands looked and felt rough.
BENEFITS
Carefully chosen natural oils give an instant relieve to dry and tired skin, making it visibly softer to the touch and leaving it feeling nourished and moisturized. Natural beeswax forms a light breathable protective layer on your skin, while locking in the luscious oils.
HOW TO USE
Apply a pea size amount of Hand Balm to the back of your hand, massage gently with the back of your other hand. Then massage all over with your open palms. Give the balm 5 minutes to absorb completely. Enjoy the softness of your skin.
Nina’s Bees balm can be used on any stubborn or dry patches of skin, anywhere on your body. I recommend Nina’s Bees Shea Butter & Orange Elbow and Heel lotion bar for very dry cracked skin that needs extra love and repair.
BALM INGREDIENTS:
Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Nina’s Beeswax, Organic Coconut Oil, Organic Coco Butter, Organic Camelia Oil, Cold Pressed Grapeseed Oil, Natural Vitamin E, Lavender & Patchouli Essential Oils
SOAP INGREDIENTS:
Saponified Organic Coconut Oil, Organic Olive Oil, Organic Shea Butter, Organic Sunflower Oil, Rice Bran Oil, Organic Oats, Honey, Australian Pink Clay
As with all skincare products, I recommend patch testing the balm prior to use.

If it is too hot, please cool it down ( in a cool, dry place), if it is too cold, please warm it up ( in your hands or on your skin).
