OUR HONEY
For nearly a century, Cox's Honey has been dedicated to producing real, raw honey the way nature intended. What began as a small family beekeeping operation has grown into generations of experience caring for bees and harvesting honey with integrity.
We believe great honey starts in the hive. Our commitment to honest beekeeping and quality craftsmanship continues today, just as it did when our family first began working with bees nearly 100 years ago.
Not all honey is created equal. Many store-bought honey is overheated, ultra-filtered, or blended with imported honey.
Our honey is carefully handled to preserve its natural qualities - the flavor, the aroma, and the beneficial enzymes that make raw honey special. We believe honey should stay as close to the hive as possible.
That means no shortcuts and no unnecessary processing.
Trust is important when it comes to honey. That's why our honey is independently tested by third-party laboratories to verify its quality and authenticity.
These tests help confirm that our honey is pure, unadulterated, and exactly what it claims to be. From checking for added sugars to verifying the natural composition of the honey, independent testing provides another level of transparency and assurance.
It's one more way we stand behind what we've always believed: Real. Raw. Honest.
Guaranteed! All of our honey comes from our own beehives and from trusted neighboring beekeeping operations we have worked with for years. We believe customers deserve to know exactly where their honey comes from.
We do not import or blend our honey with foreign or adulterated honey. By operating our own apiary and maintaining trusted sourcing, we're able to provide honey you can trust - from hive to jar.
Great honey begins with healthy bees. Responsible beekeeping is at the heart of everything we do. Our beekeepers carefully manage our hives to support strong colonies and healthy pollinators.
By focusing on good hive practices and respect for the bees, we're able to produce high-quality honey while helping sustain the pollinators that play such an important role in our ecosystem.
For us, beekeeping isn't just a business - it's a responsibility we take seriously every day.
Every jar of Cox's Honey starts with healthy hives and responsible beekeeping. From the moment the honey is harvested, we take care to preserve what nature created.
Our honey is gently extracted, minimally handled, and carefully bottled to maintain its natural character.
The result is honey that tastes the way honey should - rich, pure, and straight from the hive.
While honey is at the heart of what we do, the hive offers much more. From beeswax to naturally inspired products, many of our offerings are rooted in the ingredients bees provide.
Our collection includes honey, beeswax products, skincare, home goods, and sweet treats. All guided by the same commitment to natural quality.
At Cox's Honey, we believe the best products are simple and honest.
That means clear ingredients, careful handling, and a commitment to quality you can taste. When you open a jar of Cox's Honey, you're enjoying a product rooted in tradition, craftsmanship, and respect for the hive.

We Have Answers.

Do you heat your honey?
We gently warm our honey just enough to facilitate bottling, but never "cooking" or degrading its nutritional quality.
Do you use any foreign honey?
We do not use foreign honey. Our honey is U.S. Grade A only honey.
What is creamed honey?
Creamed honey is a controlled form of honey granulation. Essentially, we take liquid clover honey, accelerate the granulation process, run it through a process to smooth it out and package it. The honey turns white during this process. There is nothing added or taken away from the raw, unfiltered honey.
Why is my creamed honey hard?
Creamed honey is a form of crystalized honey. After packaging our creamed honey we place it in a cooler. This allows the freshness and creaminess of the honey to last longer. Which also causes the honey to harden. You can place the honey container in warm water and it will soften up.
Do you test your honey?
Yes, we do test our honey for adulteration and pesticides. As a producer-packer we can control and guarantee our honey is 100% pure honey every time.
Where is your honey from?
Our honey comes from high mountain clover grown in Idaho, Montana and Wyoming. Our honey is a U.S. Grade A White honey. We do not use any foreign honey.
What is the source (vegetation) of your honey?
Our High Mountain Clover can include white dutch clover, white sweet clover, yellow sweet clover and alfalfa.
How should I store honey?
Honey is best kept in a sealed container at room temperature. Refrigeration preserves honey very well but also promotes granulation, yielding a semi-solid mass. Freezing, on the other hand, preserves honey well and does not promote granulation. Storage above room temperature may cause your honey to darken and/or subtle flavor changes.
Why did my honey granulate?
Crystalized or hardened honey is raw honey returning back to its natural form. This is nature's way of storing and preserving honey. Crystalized honey is 100% safe to eat and can easily be returned to a liquid state by placing the container in warm water.
What makes this raw honey different?
Unlike most store-bought honey, our raw honey is never pasteurized or ultra-filtered. It retains natural enzymes, pollen, and nutrients.
