The Best Tualang Honey That Ever Is
Harvested from towering Tualang trees, this honey is the crown jewel of wild bee treasures. Its dark, rich, and robust flavor is as grand as the trees it comes from—a taste that’s as exclusive as it is unforgettable.
Malaysian Tualang Honey is a multifloral jungle honey produced by the rock bee (Apis dorsata). They are typically around 17–20 mm (0.7–0.8 in) long. Nests are mainly built in exposed places far off the ground, like on tree limbs, under cliff overhangs, and sometimes on buildings. These social bees are known for their aggressive defense strategies and vicious behavior when disturbed. Tualang here refers to tall trees which can grow up to 88 metres tall.
Tualang honey collected wildly from various plants in the surrounding area of these gigantic trees. The bees mostly feed from the wild plants and herbs available in the rainforest and make beehives on Tualang tree. Hence the honey called Tualang Honey.
