One of the highlights of Leigh's honey collection is the honey produced by bees that forage on Sea Lavender at Burnham Deepdale. The meticulous process begins with carefully transporting the honeycombs to Leigh's Bees honey house in Fincham. There, the honey undergoes a gentle extraction process, followed by sieving to eliminate any wax or hive debris. Each step of the process is meticulously performed by hand, ensuring the utmost quality in every jar. The result is a honey that exudes a delightful combination of sweetness with savoury notes.
Leigh's Bees Sea Lavender honey, along with the rest of his unique honey collection, is proudly available at Jarrold. Immerse yourself in the distinctive flavours and exceptional quality of Leigh's Bees honey, a testament to Leigh's passion and dedication to his craft.
