Title: Thai honey
Post by: ABitNut on July 14, 2014, 02:16:31 AM
I came across some old (by bitcoin standards ancient) thread of someone selling Thai honey on here. It seems they stopped selling a long time ago. Is there still any interest in buying Thai honey on here?

I am in a position to get my grubby hands on that sweet nectar on a regular basis and wouldn't mind sharing/shipping some of it across the globe.

Different nectar sources...

Even honey from two hives right next to each other can taste different...

Tasting honeys from other places (and the same places) is always fun.

Thank you for the interest. I am by no means an honey or bee expert but I will educate myself. I will be driving up country this weekend and figure out exactly what types of honey are available.

Please let me know if you have any other questions / request so I can investigate more this weekend.

I'm very interested as Goat (the original seller) was due to send me some for research purposes.
Give me a shout as to costs and what sort of colony it is (as Goat was offering feral (wild) honey and this is the stuff I need).

I had not heard of feral bees yet. My (short) research tells me these are wild bees from escaped swarms or unmanaged colonies. I'm not certain if I can find a source for that, but I will keep you updated.

I thought Goat was selling honey from the Royal Project, which is still available. They do have raw honey, but I have to confirm what colony that comes from.

What are the prices per pound shipped?

Thanks

Shipping rates would vary by the actual weight shipped. 2 pounds would be about 0.05 Bitcoin for air mail.

mmmmm..... honey.

I love honey but I usually just buy some from my grocery store, I didn't know there were different styles/tastes of honey.

Local honey when used on a regular basis, will help with your immune system and help build resistance to allergens.

I just really like honey and when I get the chance to try some new honey from far away lands I will definitely make the effort to acquire some!
