Tried this before handling a long day of meetings and surprisingly stayed locked in the whole afternoon. Not jittery like energy drinks, just cleaner focus. Didn’t expect honey to actually do that.

Hi John!

Aw, this is the good stuff, thank you! 🍯 We love that your wife has made our honey part of her nightly wind-down, and it makes the whole hive buzz to hear she's enjoying it 🐝 Thanks for bringing us into your home and for the kind words.

Hi Garry!

Thank you for the honest feedback, we really value it. Because our honey is wild-harvested rather than mass-produced, some natural variation between batches is part of its character, though we lab-test every batch to keep it within an authentic, consistent range. If you'd like to get a little more from it, many people find that taking it raw on an empty stomach and waiting 45–60 minutes before deciding on more makes a real difference. You're always welcome to check your batch's lab report here: https://www.realmadhoney.com/pages/lab-report . Thank you so much for your support, it truly means a lot to us.

Warm regards,
The Real Mad Honey Team 🐝

Real mad honey continues to send me…

Real mad honey continues to send me products that work well to help me sleep even though I have severe insomnia. This time around my wife has been using the product as well and she is also sleeping much better and waking up feeling great from a productive nights sleep. The product is great and helping my wife and I sleep better. Thanks for making such a wonderful product we love our real mad honey.

Reviews like yours remind us why we care so much about getting every jar right. Thank you for making us part of your routine.

Hi Donald!

Thank you for sharing your honest experience with us, we really appreciate it. Everyone's body responds a little differently, so it can take some experimenting to find what works for you, and we're glad you're sticking with it. If it helps, some people find that taking it raw on an empty stomach and giving it 45–60 minutes makes a difference in how they feel it

Hi Matthew!

Thank you for taking the time to share this, and we're sorry the jar didn't arrive in the condition it should have, with the seal broken and honey in the lid. That's not the unboxing we want anyone to have.

We'd really like to look into this properly for you, and the website redirect you ran into too, since reaching us should never be a hassle. Could you email us at support@realmadhoney.com with your order number? That way we can review everything together and get it sorted.

Warm regards,

Don’t waste your money!

The only thing mad about it is the price. I bought 2 jars of the Nepal strain (the strongest one) and didn’t feel a thing. I had one whole jar in a day and felt nothing. Honestly don’t waste your money, the only reason I’m not giving it 1 star is because it tastes nice.

Hey Aiden,

Thanks for the honest review, and hey, we'll take the win on the taste! 🍯

We hear you about not feeling anything, especially after trying two jars of our Nepal variety. Here's the thing: mad honey works differently for everyone, and metabolism, body weight, and whether your stomach's empty all play a big role. One thing we do want to flag with care, a whole jar in one day is way beyond what we ever recommend, and taking more at once won't unlock a stronger experience, so please don't go that route. Every batch we ship is lab-tested, and you can peek at your batch's numbers here: https://www.realmadhoney.com/pages/lab-report.

We'd really like to look into this properly with you, so please email us at support@realmadhoney.com and our team will take care of you.

Warm regards,

I take it on a night before bed.

I take it on a night before bed and it really works for me. I'm normally a fairly light sleeper and I toss n turn but on the nights I've took the honey I sleep right through and dont think I move much at all. I wake on a morning feeling so refreshed compared to my normal wake up yawning routine. I absolutely love it and I'm so pleased I took the plunge to buy some and of course I most definitely recommend it to anyone to try and hope you get the same positive outcome I am having with it.
Its an excellent quality honey with a strong honey taste.

The Honey Is Good

The honey is good. It has its own unique flavor. But from a mind calming point of view, I have not experienced it. Neither have I experienced the hallucinagenic effects that are reported. In conclusion, good everyday honey, but over priced in my opinion.

Unprompted review

Reply from Real Mad Honey

Hi Mark!

Thank you for such an honest review! We're glad the flavor came through as something unique, that's the raw, unfiltered character of the honey shining through.

On the calming effects, sensitivity to the natural compounds in mad honey varies a lot from person to person, and factors like body weight, metabolism, and whether it's taken on an empty stomach all play a role. For what it's worth, we don't position this as a hallucinogenic product, it's meant to be a much subtler shift, more of a quieter, settled feeling than anything dramatic.

On price, our honey is wild-harvested in small seasonal batches and every jar is lab-tested for authenticity, which does add real cost compared to standard honey. If you'd like to dig into what's actually in your batch, our lab reports are here: https://www.realmadhoney.com/pages/lab-report. Thanks again for taking the time to share this with us 🐝

Warm regards,
