Raw dark honey is made by Apis Dorsata bee, world’s largest giant honey
bee. Apis Dorsata is very aggressive and ferocious when disturbed and
has never been known to be successfully domesticated. As such, honey
made by Apis Dorsata bees are only sourced from the wild. This makes it a
priceless gem due to its scarcity and risks involved in harvesting the
honey plus its proven natural nutritional benefits.
Apis Dorsata bees like to build its hives on branches of gigantic tualang
trees. Tualang tree is one of the tallest trees in the world and is commonly
found in Southeast Asia tropical rainforest. Tualang tree can easily reach
80 meters in height. Hence, our dark honey is synonymously known as tualang honey.

free radicals onslaught which is constantly damaging our cells.
