TJO BeesRaw and Unfiltered Honey (22 OZ Jar)

Unprocessed, thick, golden yellow, consistent month-to-month (I've bought one every four to six weeks; over the last two years), delicious tasting honey.Its never arrived crystalized, but is thick enough that I think if you sat a jar on the shelf too long (6/8 months?), it might.I sometimes get a jar or two ahead of my rate of consumption; so, I've had jars sit on the shelf for a month or two, occasionally.Never a change in consistency, though.I always use it all up looooong before it would have a chance to crystalize.I put a couple of large globs of it in my coffee each morning.Have to scoop it out with a spoon - too thick to easily pour, or use a honey wand with.Highly recommended; no caveats - other than Amazon's consistently miserably inadequate packaging.Inevitably, the box arrives beat all-to-H***, severely damaged (often re-taped together by the shipper, in-route). Every time - w/o exception, for years - the Amazon employee packaging the honey fails to take the dense, 5 lb. nature of the jar into account. This last time, they simply put the jar into a loose-fitting, over-sized, thin, bubble-wrap 'envelope'. As always, the jar bounced around the too-loosely packed box, damaging the box so much that the product was falling out, and the box had to be heavily re-taped closed by UPS.In the past, I've had the honey pkg'd with other items, that were then damaged by the inadequately cushioned jar smashing about within the box.Almost invariably, the pkg has maybe one single large bubble-pack thrown in. Usually, it arrives popped & flat as a pancake (flatter, actually). They do take the time to wrap a doubled-over strip of thin bubble-wrap around the rim of the jar. This helps - somewhat, most of the time. Nonetheless, I've had the thus-wrapped lid arrive severely broken; and, more than once, with honey leaking out.The problem is so consistent that I've decided to include these facts in every single review I do of this honey; which I have set as a recurring purchase every 8 weeks.Hopefully... MAYBE... someone will take notice, pass it up the line, and - MAYBE - someone will actually get the message to the packing department(s), and get the employee(s) to package the honey jars adequately. Or... if that's the problem - get policy changed; if the packaging employees are simply following protocols dictated by Management.

My first order came so fast. I use honey in many things but mostly in my home made ice tea that I always have on hand and for hot tea. My first jar was used up so fast because everyone in the house loved it so much and I bought the large jar. My second jar came just as fast. Great quality and service.

I have been using TJO honey since 2020 when I first discovered it. I have it on subscription and get it about every 2 months. I love, adore, can’t get enough of this honey! It has the sweetness without a grassy taste. It’s very delicate. I can use it for all my cooking and baking without tasting a specific “honey” taste. Which can make all your food taste the same. I use it for homemade ice cream in place of sugar and it mixes perfectly in the blender with all the other ingredients. My cheesecake tastes heavenly with it in place of white sugar. It requires less honey to sweeten things than it does sugar and is so much healthier. Honey is full of nutrients unique to it. It is truly a super food. Full of health benefits. Enjoy!

Update: I've bought this honey 10+ times now. I go through about a jar a month (on average) and I love this honey so much! I have noticed they went up in price by $5 since the very first time I bought a jar...I hope it doesn't keep going up and up like my last brand did.I was initially going to give this honey a low rating after trying it for the very first time. But then I was gifted by my sister another jar of this exact honey and I changed my mind. So, I was loyal to another brand that carries 5 pound jars, but they got way to expensive so I wanted to try another similar honey but cheaper and that's how I found TJO honey. Well my first jar I had bought was not that great at all. It was super crystallized and not smooth at all. It was extremely gritty like eating sugar off a spoon texture and I really hated that although I did finish the bottle because I just used it in my teas so the texture didn't matter much, but I also eat honey off the spoon when I'm sick so that texture was just horrible to eat right off the spoon, or spread it on anything. My sister got me another jar of this honey for my birthday recently, and this jar she got, was amazing. It was nothing like the previous jar I have gotten for myself. This time it was super smooth, not crystallized at all. Texture and flavor was perfect! So guess some batches are 5 star honey and other batches are 2 star honey. I will try this brand again so long as the honey is nice and smooth and not grainy like it was before.

This is truly amazeballs. I’m just straight up eating it. Thank you for making/keeping it the real thing!! And thanks for getting it to me so soon, I really need good honey for a proper cup of tea. Incredible! Don’t change a thing.

I like the texture, opurity and taste: excellent honey. I use it (instead of sugar) in my tea and also on toast with butter sometimes. The only reason I gave it 4 instead of 5 stars is the rather long delivery time it is now taking compared to the first few times I ordered it.

I think this is the best honey I have found. I drink a lot of hot tea and I'll add a tablespoon of honey. I really like the taste and the texture of this brand. It's sweet but has a naturally sweet taste not that syrupy fructose taste a lot of squeezable honey has. I also think the cost is on point for the quality of the honey.

Excellent honey 10/10 recommend!
