Frogmouth Ponds Tasmanian Blue Gum Honey is a bold, smooth eucalyptus honey harvested from bees foraging on the iconic Blue Gum trees (Eucalyptus globulus) that are native to — and inseparable from — the Tasmanian landscape. Golden amber in colour, full-bodied on the palate and carrying the distinctive warm, slightly medicinal character that eucalyptus honey lovers seek out, this is one of Australia’s most recognised and beloved native honey varieties.
Raw, unblended and proudly Tasmanian, our Blue Gum Honey is harvested when the Blue Gums flower in abundance across Tasmania’s forests, reserves and rural properties. The result is a honey that tastes of the Tasmanian landscape itself — wild, clean and genuinely distinctive. If you’ve been searching for a real Australian eucalyptus honey, this is it.

Why Tasmanian Blue Gum Honey?
Blue Gum (Eucalyptus globulus) is one of Tasmania’s most abundant and iconic native trees. When it flowers, it produces a prolific nectar flow that bees work intensively — resulting in a honey with exceptional body, a distinctive eucalyptus warmth and a flavour depth that lighter floral honeys simply can’t match. Tasmania’s clean air, high rainfall and vast native forest reserves make it one of the finest Blue Gum honey-producing regions in the world.
Flavour Profile
Tasmanian Blue Gum Honey pours a warm golden amber, slightly darker than clover but lighter than Manuka or Blackberry. On the nose it’s immediately recognisable — the clean, resinous warmth of eucalyptus, softened by a natural floral sweetness. On the palate it opens with a bold, full sweetness before the characteristic eucalyptus note emerges — smooth rather than sharp, warming rather than medicinal. The finish is long, clean and satisfying, with a gentle herbal aftertaste that lingers pleasantly. It’s a honey that tastes unmistakably Australian.
How to Use Blue Gum Honey
Blue Gum honey’s bold, warming character makes it a natural fit for both the kitchen and the pantry. Here are some of our favourite ways to enjoy it:
Storage & Handling
Store your Frogmouth Ponds Blue Gum Honey at room temperature in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Blue Gum honey has a tendency to granulate relatively quickly due to its glucose content — this is completely natural and does not affect quality or flavour in any way. In fact, many honey lovers prefer granulated Blue Gum for spreading. To return it to a liquid state, place the jar in a bowl of warm water and stir gently. Do not microwave or overheat.
Frequently Asked Questions
Blue Gum honey is a single-source eucalyptus honey produced from bees foraging on the blossoms of Eucalyptus globulus — the Tasmanian Blue Gum. It is one of Australia’s most distinctive native honey varieties, known for its bold, warm eucalyptus character, full body and deep amber colour. Unlike blended eucalyptus honeys, our Blue Gum is sourced exclusively from Tasmanian Blue Gum blossoms and carries a genuine single-origin flavour profile.
Blue Gum honey has a bold, warm sweetness with a smooth eucalyptus character — distinctively Australian, resinous and gently herbal, but not sharp or overpowering. It’s fuller and more complex than lighter honeys like clover, and warmer in character than fruity varieties like blackberry or berry honey. If you enjoy the flavour of eucalyptus or native Australian botanicals, this honey will feel like coming home.
Blue Gum honey is naturally higher in glucose than many other varieties, which means it granulates — or crystallises — more readily. This is a completely natural process and is actually a sign of genuine, unprocessed honey. Many people prefer granulated Blue Gum for its spreadable, butter-like texture. To return it to liquid form, place the jar in warm water and stir gently. Never microwave or boil.
