Awesome Honey, me likes
It was my first time buying from carniebees after hearing about them last year and I was not let down at all. I use honey everyday has it helps keep me grounded and their honey was top class. Locally made by 2 fellow local people. I just been so buzzy buzzing about is why it took me so long to try. Another product and company. Much love sistars. Gary Pickard ✨🏴💫👍
Fantastic honey and know as gifts
Fantastic honey and know as gifts, they’ll think the same.
Lovely raw local honey
Lovely honey, local too. We used to keep bees and produced raw un-heat treated honey, this honey reacts in exactly the same way as ours did to temperature / storage, so given the taste, consistency and the way it stores I'm confident it is a genuine raw local honey that is not heat treated in any way. It is so difficult to tell exactly what you are buying with honey as so much of it is adulterated in some way. Worth every penny when you find a good supplier, keeping bees and producing honey is very time consuming.
Very disappointing, all round.
Slow delivery. Although the site does say to allow up to 5 working days for despatch, 9 days from ordering to receipt is a bit much.
And then, sadly, both jars of honey went in the bin after a much anticipated wait. The strawberry one was rock solid and unpleasant flavour-wise, and the vanilla one was runny but only two-thirds full. Also, the vanilla and honey were totally separated, with all the vanilla on one side, and honey on the other. Took a bit of mixing to try to blend it, but not worth the effort as, again, unpleasant flavour.
Packaging was very inadequate - I was surprised the jars weren’t smashed.
All in all, a very disappointing and expensive experience when I was so excited to find this company with such good reviews.

Buzz buzz Delicious.
I first tried this at Portsoy Boat festival buying the Raspberry Honey. It was so tasty and delicious on toast that I ended up buying a few others. The charcoal Honey is so deceiving but wow I think that could be my fav and having Black toast looks that bit different. The lemon & Ginger has such a kick to it but so good when you’re not feeling well and need a boost. Highly recommend these beauties. Very delicious and great in tea and wheatabix to kick start your morning.
Carnie Bees Honey is amazing!!
We brought Carnie Bees honey at a car show in Lauder this year, what made it extra special was we got to taste all the different Honeys to see which one we liked the best before we made a purchase. It all got eaten very quickly so went on line to order more which was absolutely hassle free and the Honey arrived very quickly. I would definitely recommend this company not just because they are super efficient but the Honey is one of the best we have tasted.
Amazing!
Amazing value for money and very fast delivery! I feel incredible taking this product 💛
