3 Renowned Honeys. One Great Price.
Carob Seed Honey. The carob plant is not harvested and grows wild in the Moroccan landscape. The honey produced from it has a truly on-of-a-kind taste of bittersweet honey flavor woven with strains of caramel and subtle chocolate.
Jujube Honey. The tree that produces the bitter-apple-like jujube fruit also is responsible for ALILI's floral, fragrant and bittersweet Jujube honey -- one of the most unique honeys imaginable.
Lavender Flower Honey. In addition to its awesome medicinal benefits, ALILI Lavender Flower Honey has subtle floral essence with lingering citrus notes.

History of Montain Honey
Honey is as old as written history, dating back to 2100 B.C. where it was mentioned in Sumerian and Babylonian cuneiform writings, the Hittite code, and the sacred writings of India and Egypt. It is presumably even older than that. In days of old, honey has been used not only in food and beverages, but also to make cement, in furniture polishes and varnishes, and for medicinal purposes.
Honey was valued highly and often used as a form of currency, tribute, or offering. In the 11th century A.D., German peasants paid their feudal lords in honey and beeswax. Although experts argue whether the honeybee is native to the Americas, conquering Spaniards in 1600 A.D. found native Mexicans and Central Americans had already developed beekeeping methods to produce honey.
