Things You Might Like To Know
How do I use Marri honey in my daily routine? Marri is genuinely versatile - it works beautifully in both wellness and culinary applications.
For Wellness: Enjoy a raw teaspoon straight from the jar to support your daily antioxidant intake, or stir into warm (not boiling) water with lemon.
For Tea & Warm Beverages: Add to chamomile, herbal, or black tea after brewing (never in boiling water) to preserve its bioactive properties while adding warmth and depth.
For Charcuterie & Cheese: Drizzle over creamy soft cheeses (brie, camembert) or serve alongside aged hard cheeses and cured meats for a sophisticated pairing.
For Cooking: Use in subtle glazes for roasted vegetables, roasted chicken, or pork - Marri's balanced sweetness won't overpower delicate flavours. Use as a flavouring only due to heat exposure.
What makes Marri special? Marri sits in the sweet spot between Leatherwood (highly floral, Tasmanian) and Ironbark (very earthy, bold). It's sophisticated without being intimidating - a honey that appeals to both newcomers and connoisseurs.
Is Marri good for wellness? Absolutely. Marri is naturally high in beneficial antimicrobial and antioxidant compounds, making it an excellent choice if you want a honey that supports both taste preferences and wellness goals.
How should I store my raw Marri honey? Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight (pantry is ideal). Because our Marri is 100% pure and unadulterated, it may naturally crystallise over time. This is a mark of true quality! If you prefer a liquid consistency, simply place the glass jar in a bowl of warm water until it gently softens. Never microwave raw honey, as high heat will destroy its delicate bioactive compounds.
Is raw Marri honey safe for my family? Yes, Marri is a pure, wholesome food that makes a wonderful natural alternative to refined sugars for the whole family. However, please note the standard safety guideline: raw honey of any kind should never be given to infants under 12 months of age, as their developing digestive systems are not yet ready for the beneficial spores found in raw honey.
How does Marri compare to other Western Australian honeys? If you've tried Yarri TA 35+ (our super-bioactive powerhouse at $30), Marri is more approachable - less expensive, slightly less intense, but still deeply bioactive and complex. Both are Western Australian natives, but our certified TA 35+ Yarri is for the serious wellness seeker, while our untested Marri appeals to a broader audience.
Does Marri produce strong Total Activity (TA)? Marri honey is renowned for naturally producing strong Total Antimicrobial Activity (TA). Standard testing typically places its potency anywhere between TA 10+ and well over TA 25+.
Is our Marri honey high in TA? Very likely! While this specific harvest hasn't been officially lab-tested, raw Marri honey is naturally famous for its consistently high TA bioactive scores.
