Raw. Natural.
Pure Antiguan Honey.
From healthy bees, natural landscapes
and genuine small-batch harvests.
Foraged in Antigua
From woodland, wildflowers and coastal flora around English Harbour and the surrounding hills.
Raw & unfiltered
Never heated or heavily processed. Just raw, pure honey the way nature intended.
Small batches

Responsible by design
Good for the colonies. Connected to the landscape.
Woodland shade, dependable water, responsible colony numbers and careful monitoring support strong bees while their foraging helps local flowering plants, gardens and fruit trees.
Woodland apiaries
Hives are placed among retained local trees for shade, screening and wind protection.
Surplus-only harvests
Honey is taken only when colonies have enough stores for their own continued strength.
Local pollination
Foraging bees transfer pollen between flowers and help the surrounding ecosystem thrive.

Questions
A little more about the honey
Is the honey produced in Antigua?
Yes. Old Fort Honey Co. is being developed around locally managed colonies in the Monk’s Hill and English Harbour area of Antigua.
Can I order online for delivery?
Not at launch. The website is designed to show current availability and direct customers to approved local stockists.
What does raw and unfiltered mean?
The honey is handled with minimal processing and is not fine-filtered to remove all naturally occurring particles. Final label claims will be checked against the finished production method and local requirements.
Why does natural honey crystallise?
Crystallisation is a normal natural process. Placing the closed container in gently warm water can return it to a more liquid consistency.
Is honey suitable for babies?
Honey must not be given to infants under 12 months.
