Mountain Gold Beech Honeydew Honey

Beech Honeydew – Luxury Native New Zealand Honey

By Mountain Gold Honey

Experience the rich, malty depth of Mountain Gold Beech Honeydew, a unique New Zealand honey harvested from the secretive depths of native beech forests. Unlike floral honeys, Beech Honeydew is produced from the honeydew secreted by scale insects on beech trees, creating a naturally complex and slow-crystallizing honey.

Character & Flavour

Beech Honeydew is dark red-brown in colour with a rich, malty flavour and a smooth, luxurious texture. Its natural sweetness is complex and less overpowering than floral honeys, making it perfect for:

  • Adding depth to barbecues, roasts, and marinades

  • Enhancing gourmet sauces and dressings

  • Enjoying straight from the spoon or on a cheese board

Its low glucose and fructose content and high levels of complex oligosaccharides (such as maltose, erlose, and melezitose) help it resist crystallization and may support gut health as prebiotic sugars.

The Beech Tree & Honeydew Source

Mountain Gold Beech Honeydew is sourced from New Zealand’s native beech forests in the South Island. Two species of beech — Black Beech (Nothofagus solandri) and Red Beech (N. fusca) — host scale insects that secrete the nutrient-rich honeydew.

This honey captures the wild essence of the forest, offering a naturally rich and complex taste that reflects New Zealand’s pristine native ecosystems.
