01
Spring blossom
The aromatic first harvest: light, floral, many-layered. Acacia, horse chestnut and lime blossom set the tone. Goes with young cheese, yoghurt and white bread.
The Honey
Two harvests, three characters
Spring blossom, spring blossom crème and summer harvest – carefully harvested and filled by hand.
From hive to jar
Short distances, unhurried work.
We harvest only what the colonies can spare, and extract cold. Then it is strained, left to rest, skimmed – and only then filled. No heating and no detour through wholesale.
Every jar carries the signature of its location: what flowers in the Pestalozzi gardens tastes different from what grows at the edge of the woods in Höngg.
The varieties
Three that differ distinctly from one another.
02
Spring blossom crème
The spring blossom, stirred until it melts softly instead of running. Spreads easily on breakfast toast – and never sets hard again.
03
Summer harvest
Darker and stronger, with a malty finish. The full taste of a Zurich summer – excellent with hard cheese, game and in dark sauces.
Packaging
A golden bee on a black label.
An elegant honeycomb-shaped jar, a black label, a golden bee: Zürihonig is recognisable from across the room. It comes in three sizes – every jar filled carefully by hand.

For companies
A client gift with an address.
Zürihonig works as a give‑away and a client gift – on request with a small booklet telling where the honey comes from. Please ask early for larger quantities: what is harvested is harvested.
