Our HONEY POT
We are very proud of our honey selections, and we have a great deal of respect for the artisan, small batch, high-quality apiaries which supply us.
Here are some of the brands we love.
Our latest tasting menu features 72+ varieties for you to experience. The exact product lineup is fluid and always changing; some of the selections are those we always carry, but some are “in and out” because they are limited editions.

From Florida WITH LOVE
We love doing business with other small businesses in Florida, and the most frequent request from our customers is for Local Honey. We carry delicious artisan raw honey from two hyperlocal apiaries in Naples…Sweet Bees and Naples Finest. We also have quite a few apiaries with whom we partner in other areas of Florida. And, as Floridians well know, the allergy season here in Southwest Florida is more like an allergy year(!), and an overwhelming amount of people swear by local honey to combat the symptoms. Here is a sampling of the great Florida brands we carry:
Started in 2009 in Jacksonville by beekeeper Michael Leach, Bee Friends Farm specializes in local, raw Florida honey. Their varieties change with the seasons, and we do carry their pollen. As for honey, we especially crave the Black Mangrove—it is truly sublime!
Naples Honey Company, one of our hyper-local Naples brands, was established in 1999 by Tom May, a cellist in the Naples Philharmonic. He is a third-generation beekeeper and has grown his apiary in Naples to over 120 hives. The official name of his honey is “Naples Finest” and we primarily sell his orange blossom, which is smooth and delicious. Naples Honey and Grand Central Honey also partner on a delicious fall Naples limited edition: “Honey for All Seasons,” a blend of all four seasons’ wildflower honey harvests. Stay tuned…when this one comes in, it sells out in a NY minute!
Located in the Florida panhandle, about an hour’s drive to the east of Panama City in the small town of Wewahitchka. Smiley Honey was started in 1989 by Donald Smiley. They are known for their delicious Tupelo Honey. Taste it, and you will know why.
Smiley also has hives in Africa. The honey is ethically gathered from the blossoms of African flora, creating a robust, extraordinary flavor.
The proceeds of the African Honey benefit the Kafakumba missionary training center. The honey is certified organic and NON-GMO verified.
Sweet Bees is a hyper-local Naples-owned and operated family beekeeping business. Maxwell Goodacre harvests high-quality raw honey. Maxwell is a Master Beekeeper and multi-award-winning honey judge. The varieties on our shelves vary, but they are all excellent!
WeeBee is a family apiary with hives in both New York and Florida. They are fifth-generation beekeepers and have been in business since 1973. No chemicals or pesticides are used on their land, only essential oils. This honey is like eating it straight out of the hive—it is firm, yet smooth and ivory in color, and contains pollen, propolis and honeycomb, all of which are very beneficial. Eating a spoonful after dinner definitely qualifies as dessert–it is that delicious.
The Honey Couple is based in Tampa, FL, and began with a passion for bees and the discovery of all things honey. They started their beekeeping journey with 2 hives and then grew to over 200. Their specialty is raw infused honey. The Honey Couple only uses the highest quality ingredients to
infuse …no extracts, concentrates, or oils.
Danielle Brooks loves drinking tea, especially with honey. One day she thought how awesome it would be to have her own hive. After checking out every book in the library on the subject, she decided to jump in with both feet. What started with one beehive quickly turned into a full scale business. The mission of Honey Truck is to educate others about honey bees, native pollinators, and ways we can help conserve their habitats. Danielle now maintains multiple hives all over the city of St. Augustine.These honeys are cultivated in small batches that are bottled in St. Augustine, Fl.
Manuka Gold is a family-owned Florida business.
They have been in business for two decades, and dedicate themselves to providing natural, high-quality wellness products powered by Manuka Honey.
We carry several of their products, and one we cannot keep in stock is their BEE WELL SUPERFOOD. It is a great blend of Manuka Honey, Lemongrass, turmeric, coconut and ginger. Definitely a fan fave!
