Cloud Forest Wildflower
1,500 masl · Unión Juárez
Hand-harvested from wildflower meadows in the cloud forests of Unión Juárez — at the foot of Volcán Tacaná, 1,500 metres above sea level. Nothing filtered, nothing added.
We believe honey should taste like the land it comes from — volcanic soil, cloud forest air, the shadow of an ancient mountain. Nothing more, nothing less.

Apiaries
Unión Juárez sits at the foot of Volcán Tacaná — at 4,093 metres, the highest peak in southeastern Mexico, on the border with Guatemala. Its name in Mayan means place surrounded by clouds.
Our apiary sits at 1,500 metres above sea level, inside the cloud forest belt where volcanic soil, perpetual moisture, and singular biodiversity create nectar unlike anything from the lowlands.
Our bees forage across the cloud forest at 1,500 metres — wildflowers, coffee blossoms, native orchids, and highland flora that bloom in sequence through the Chiapas rainy season.
Frames are pulled by hand during peak flow, only when the bees have capped the cells — nature's signal that the moisture is exactly right. The cool mountain air slows fermentation naturally.
A single low-speed pass through a stainless extractor. No heat, no ultrasound, no filtering. Every enzyme, pollen grain, and aromatic compound from the cloud forest stays intact.
Filled by hand, labeled with the origin, elevation, and harvest season. Each batch is small enough that we know every jar by name.
I've tried many raw honeys, but OrVa's Wildflower is something else entirely. You can taste the altitude, the season, the specific meadow. It tastes like memory.
New harvests, batch releases, and quiet notes from the apiary — delivered to your inbox when we have something worth saying.
