Queenstown Lakes Multi-Floral

Raw | Pure | Queenstown Lakes Honey

Crafted in the heart of Queenstown, Lake Hayes, Gibbston, and Arrowtown, our Queenstown Lakes MultiFloral Honey captures the spirit of Central Otago in every jar. In the clear alpine air and wide valleys, bees forage across clover pastures, native Kamahi, Matagouri, Mānuka, Erica, and wild roadside blooms — producing a golden, delicate honey filled with local pollens that may naturally support hayfever wellness.

With soft and mild flavours of peach, fudge, and light floral notes, this honey is as versatile as it is authentic. Drizzle it over toast, stir it into tea, or pair it with local cheeses to enjoy a true taste of the Queenstown Lakes District. From hives visible in public areas to the jar on your table, every spoonful reflects the purity, provenance, and beauty of Central Otago.

Queenstown Manuka 80+ MGO

Raw | Pure | Queenstown Lakes MānukaHoney

From the alpine landscapes of Queenstown, Glenorchy, Arrowtown, and Glendhu Bay, our Queenstown Mānuka Honey is a rare expression of place and purity. Bees forage across Mahu Whenua land and high-country ridgelines where native Mānuka blooms thrive under dramatic alpine conditions.

The result is a full-bodied, New Zealand Mānuka honey with deep caramel sweetness, bold herbal strength, and a warm, lasting finish. Known for its rich flavour and wellness properties, this honey is perfect for daily routines, soothing rituals, or for those who appreciate a taste as strong as its origin.

More than just honey, it’s a gift of provenance and memory — a connection to Queenstown’s mountains, lakes, and trails, and a way to relive time spent in this remarkable region.

Queenstown Manuka 263+ MGO

Potent. Portable. Purposeful.

For travellers and wellness seekers alike, our High Grade NZ Mānuka Honey delivers exceptional strength in a lightweight, pouch-packaged format — no heavy jars required. Harvested from the wild coastal forests of Marlborough Sounds and the rugged hills of Manawatū, this honey captures the essence of New Zealand’s untamed landscapes.

Whether you’re supporting your immune system on the go, gifting a premium taste of New Zealand, or simply indulging in the world’s most powerful honey, Be Local’s High Grade Mānuka is crafted to travel with you.

Southern Alps Beechwood Honeydew

Raw | Pure | Southern Alps Beechwood Honeydew

Sourced from the untouched Southern Alps of New Zealand, our Southern Alps Honeydew is one of the country’s most unique and sought-after honey varieties. Unlike traditional floral honeys, honeydew is created when bees collect the sweet secretions from native beech scale insects deep in the alpine beechwood forests.

The result is a silky, golden syrup-like honey with flavour notes of maple, caramel, and butterscotch. Naturally high in antioxidants and rich in prebiotics, it supports gut health while offering a smooth, liquid texture that never crystallizes. With lower glucose levels than even Mānuka honey, Honeydew is a versatile, healthier replacement for sugar — perfect drizzled over feta-based salads, paired with cheese, or stirred into drinks.

This rare New Zealand honey reflects the purity of its alpine origins and brings both wellness benefits and a luxury taste experience to your table.

Gibbson Valley Thyme Honey

Location: Central Otago, New Zealand
Flavour: Bold, aromatic, with earthy herbal notes and a lingering savoury-sweet finish.
Summary: A distinctive thyme honey born from the wild flowering hillsides of Central Otago — where bees forage among sun-soaked thyme fields to create a honey unlike any other.

Wild. Aromatic. Unmistakable.

Harvested from the thyme-clad valleys of Central Otago, this honey captures the essence of the region’s rugged landscape and Mediterranean-like summers. Its bold herbal profile makes it a favourite for pairing with cheeses, roasted vegetables, or simply savoured by the spoonful.
