Jabal Akhdar · Libya · Cyrenaica · Limited 2025 Harvest
Cold-extracted from the ancient Ziziphus forests of Libya's Green Mountain by the indigenous Apis Mellifera sahariensis. Unpasteurized. Unfiltered. Prized for millennia - and unchanged.
Sourced from the wild Ziziphus lotus blossoms of Libya's Jabal Akhdar - the Green Mountain - in the Cyrenaica highlands. The region receives over 600mm of annual rainfall, unusually lush for North Africa, with the Wadi Al-Kouf valley untouched by agriculture or industry.
Every drop is harvested by the indigenous Apis Mellifera sahariensis - a rare North African subspecies found nowhere else on earth, uniquely adapted to Libya's ancient Ziziphus forests and the exceptional nectar they produce.
Gathered from the Wadi Al-Kouf valley of Jabal Akhdar by wild bees in their natural habitat. No managed apiaries. No agricultural interference. Just the mountain, the blossom, and the bee.
Produced exclusively by Apis Mellifera sahariensis - the indigenous North African subspecies found only in the Cyrenaica highlands, uniquely co-evolved with the Ziziphus lotus over millennia.
Dual-action antibacterial activity through hydrogen peroxide and phenolic compounds - among the highest total antioxidant capacity recorded for any honey. Cold-extracted to preserve every compound, unfiltered to keep them intact.
"Cold-Extracted.
Unpasteurized.
Unfiltered."
Sidr honey has been prized for millennia across the Arab world for its exceptional therapeutic properties. Independently studied for its antioxidant concentration and broad-spectrum antibacterial activity - among the most potent honeys naturally available.

Raw honey is a living product. Four simple rules to protect everything inside.
Store away from direct sunlight and heat sources to preserve active enzymes and flavour.
Cold temperatures accelerate crystallisation. Keep at room temperature for best consistency.
Always use wooden or ceramic spoons. Metal can react with honey's natural enzymes.
Raw honey crystallises over time - a sign of purity. Gently warm in hot water to restore flow.
From the MENA diaspora to health-conscious buyers worldwide - what Mellifera means to those who've tried it.
