Java Plum

This rare batch of Java Plum honey, harvested in September 2024 from the South Kona region of Hawaii's Big Island, is a testament to nature's rarest offerings. Java Plum trees are not heavy nectar producers, making this honey a true collector’s delight. It has been several years since the blooms were dense enough to yield this distinctive varietal.

The South Kona region's rains often challenge nectar collection, but this honey triumphs, encapsulating the luscious essence of ripe, juicy plums and the bold depth of concord grape skins. Concord grapes, much like the Java Plum, are anything but ordinary. Celebrated for their tangy sweetness, musky aroma, and unique snap, they are a rarity, demanding skill and care to cultivate. Their tart, complex character mirrors the layered flavors in this honey, creating a tasting experience that elevates it far beyond common expectations.

Java Plum will linger delightfully on the palate, reminiscent of biting into a perfectly ripened plum.
