The Mad Honey Story

Our story begins from Lamjung, Nepal — a place where mad honey has been part of village life for generations. Long before we ever sold our first jar, mad honey was something shared at home: a taste of the hills, a symbol of tradition, and a story carried through each harvest

From an early age, we witnessed honey hunters prepare for the climb — ropes laid out, smoke rising, hands steady with experience. In those days, mad honey was not a product. It was something elders trusted, respected, and kept in the household as part of everyday life.

Honey hunting in our region is an ancient and daring tradition, passed down through generations. Over time, we learned that what makes mad honey truly special is not only the wild cliffs or the giant Himalayan bees, but the people behind the harvest — their skill, patience, and deep respect for nature.

“Honey hunting is an ancient and daring tradition in our community — passed down through generations.”

When we finally chose to share this honey beyond Lamjung, we made one promise: to do it with honesty, care, and integrity — just as it has always been harvested.
