Pure Taif Rose Honey (Makkah)

Taif Rose Honey is a rare and exquisite honey harvested from the famous mountainous rose gardens of Taif in the provence of Makkah, often referred to as the City of Roses, Taif is known for the famously fragrant flowers that grow in the surrounding wadis and mountains. It's also known as Saudi's unofficial summer capital. Because of its altitude, Taif is a cool escape from the heat and is regarded as one of the best honeys in the Middle East.

Every spring, the city of Taif blooms pink and red. First, the rose bushes blossom in the valley of Wadi Mahram, then higher up in Al Hada, and finally at 2,500 meters in Al Shafa, the mountains to the south of the city. Because of the altitude at which they’re grown, these delicate, intensely perfumed 30-petal wonders are a little fresher in character. The highly priced oil extracted from these roses is famous in the muslim world and is favoured by the royals of the Middle East along with major brands such as Givenchy and Jimmy Choo to name a few.

The unique rose taste, colour and scent make this an extraordinary honey which is completely natural, nothing is infused, just the bees feeding from the beautiful roses and collecting the abundance of nectar and producing this prized honey.

Due to this honey being another rare find and small-batch, we have made a few jars available exclusively on TikTok, get yours before they have sold out!
