Raw Tasmanian Blackberry Honey – Light & Delicate

Price range: $6.00 through $24.00

Frogmouth Ponds Tasmanian Blackberry Honey is a stunning dark honey harvested from bees foraging on the wild blackberry blossoms that sprawl across Tasmania’s roadsides, gullies and bushland margins each summer. Deep amber to near-dark in colour, richly fruity in flavour and naturally complex on the palate — this is a honey that tastes exactly as beautiful as it looks.

Raw, unblended and sourced exclusively from Tasmanian bees, our Blackberry Honey carries the unmistakable character of the fruit it comes from — a warm, jammy sweetness underscored by a gentle tartness that sets it apart from lighter floral varieties. If you’ve never tried a fruit-blossom honey before, this is the one to start with.

Why Tasmanian Blackberry Honey?

Wild blackberry grows prolifically across Tasmania’s temperate landscape, producing an abundance of white blossoms each summer that bees absolutely love. The resulting honey is one of the most distinctive and flavourful single-source varieties we produce — deep in colour, generous in body and unmistakably fruity in character. Tasmania’s clean soils and cool growing climate give the blackberry blossom a vibrancy that translates directly into the honey.

Flavour Profile

Tasmanian Blackberry Honey pours a deep, dark amber with warm reddish tones. On the nose it’s immediately fruity — think fresh blackberry jam with floral undertones. On the palate it opens with a rich, full sweetness before a gentle berry tartness emerges mid-palate, giving way to a long, warm finish. It’s fuller bodied than clover or garden blend honey, with a complexity that makes it as impressive drizzled over a dessert as it is spread on morning toast.

How to Use Blackberry Honey

Blackberry honey’s rich, fruity depth makes it equally at home in the kitchen, on the table and in the glass. Here are some of our favourite ways to enjoy it:

  • On toast or fresh bread — spread generously and let the flavour speak for itself
  • With cheese — magnificent alongside blue cheese, aged cheddar, brie or goat’s cheese
  • Over desserts — drizzle over vanilla ice cream, panna cotta, cheesecake or fresh berries
  • In baking — substitute for sugar or standard honey in muffins, cakes and berry tarts for a deeper flavour
  • As a glaze — brush over duck breast, pork belly or lamb ribs before roasting for a rich, caramelised finish
  • In drinks — stir into black tea, cocktails or sparkling water with lemon for a fruity honey twist
  • With yoghurt — swirl through thick Greek yoghurt with fresh berries for a quick, elegant breakfast

Storage & Handling

Store your Frogmouth Ponds Blackberry Honey at room temperature in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Like all raw honeys it may crystallise over time — this is a sign of genuine, unprocessed honey and does not affect quality or flavour. To return it to a liquid state, place the jar in a bowl of warm water and stir gently until smooth. Do not microwave or overheat.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does blackberry honey taste like?

Tasmanian Blackberry Honey has a rich, jammy sweetness with a subtle fruity tartness — like the essence of a fresh blackberry lifted into honey form. It’s fuller and more complex than lighter varieties like clover, with a dark warmth that makes it deeply satisfying eaten on its own or paired with food. If you enjoy berry flavours, this honey will become a firm favourite.

Is blackberry honey actually made from blackberries?

Not directly — blackberry honey is made from the nectar of blackberry blossoms, not the fruit itself. Bees collect nectar from the white flowers of the blackberry plant during its summer flowering season. The resulting honey carries the characteristic flavour compounds of the blossom, which translate into the fruity, berry-like sweetness the variety is known for.

Is this honey raw and unprocessed?

Yes. Our Blackberry Honey is minimally processed and raw. It is not heat treated, ultra-filtered or blended with other honey varieties. The fruity aromatics of blackberry blossom honey are best preserved without heat, so keeping it raw is both a quality decision and a flavour one.

How does blackberry honey compare to other Frogmouth Ponds honeys?

Our Clover Honey is light, mild and sweet — a classic everyday variety. Our Leatherwood Honey is bold and intensely floral. Our Fennel Honey is herbaceous and aniseed in character. Blackberry is the fruity one — darker, richer and more full-bodied than the rest, with a natural berry warmth that makes it particularly wonderful with food.

Why does my honey look so dark?

Darker colour in honey is completely natural and is typically a sign of a richer, more complex nectar source. Blackberry blossom produces a naturally dark nectar that results in a deep amber honey. The darker the honey, the more pronounced the flavour — and the higher the concentration of naturally occurring antioxidants and minerals.

Is blackberry honey suitable for children?

Blackberry honey is safe for children over 12 months of age. Honey of any kind should never be given to infants under 12 months due to the risk of infant botulism. Always consult your healthcare professional if you have any concerns about dietary suitability for young children.

Do you ship across Australia?

Yes — we ship Frogmouth Ponds products Australia-wide from Tasmania. Please check current shipping rates and thresholds at checkout, as these may vary based on your location and order size.
