Our Story

Our Story

Our journey with Mad Honey began after watching a VICE documentary, which sparked our fascination with its unique properties. However, we quickly realized that the market is filled with unreliable sellers, many of whom don’t offer any independent lab reports to verify the authenticity or safety of their honey.

Determined to change this, we set out to find the highest quality Mad Honey. Our search led us to Nepal and Turkey, regions known for their centuries-old traditions of harvesting this rare honey.

In Nepal, we even filmed a mini-documentary showcasing the entire process, which you can watch right here.

By partnering with trusted local honey hunters and conducting independent lab tests on every batch, we ensure the purity, potency, and safety of the product.

Now, when you’re looking to buy Mad Honey, you can trust that we provide only the best, lab-tested honey with a rich history and genuine effects, sourced from the finest regions in the world.

And so Real Mad Honey was born!

The Art of Harvesting Mad Honey

Sourced from expert honey-hunters in Turkey and the Himalayan regions, our mad honey combines ancient traditions with modern safety standards, bringing you a product rooted in authenticity.

1

Climbing High Cliffs

Honey hunters scale steep cliffs where wild bees build their hives.

2

Smoking the Hives

They use smoke to calm the bees and reduce aggression before harvesting.

3

Cutting the Honeycombs

The honeycomb is carefully cut from the hive using long bamboo poles.

4

Collecting the Honey

Mad honey is collected and prepared for processing and consumption.

TASTE OF THE HIMALAYAS’ WILD SIDE

Mad honey has been used traditionally to alleviate pain for centuries. From arthritis to depression and ADHD, it’s pain relief for the wise guys. And this secret sauce is 100% natural.

Mad Honey or deli bal, as the locals in Turkey call it, is no ordinary sweet treat.

Crafted by bees from the nectar of special rhododendron flowers. For centuries, the Gurung natives in Nepal have prized it, not only for its healing properties but also for its unique, euphoric effects.

ONLY EXTRACTED ONCE A YEAR

Real Mad Honey is a rare and precious product, being harvested by our expert bearkeepers just once a year – when the conditions in the mountainous regions of Nepal and Turkey are perfect for the Rhododendron flowers to bloom.

HOW TO IDENTIFY AUTHENTIC MAD HONEY

Genuine mad honey should cling to the spoon and maintain a thick, smooth, and velvety texture.

Upon consumption, the first thing you should notice is a slight tickle in the back of your throat. From here, the only way is up.
