Killer Bees Honey & Culinary Experience

Killer Bees Honey & Culinary Experience

Learn about a bees life, inspect a hive up close, taste different honeys paired with different foods and drink champagne! All in a beautiful mountain top setting.

A sommelier would describe honey similarly to the terroir of a fine wine, an expression of place, time and weather. Like wine, our honey is as unique as the micro region of our mountain retreat.

Killer Bees Honey is committed to providing the purest and most natural honey possible. Our artisanal honey is nothing like the heat-treated, ultra-filtered, bland, off-the-shelf store honey. Killer Bees Honey is never blended, flavored, heated, or pasteurized. All honey is harvested, hand-bottled, and packaged on premises.

From the forest, to the hive to your table; let Killer Bees Honey sweeten your day.

The Killer Bees Honey apiary tour & honey tasting will introduce you to the elemental intensity of a hive, its queen and her subjects.

Located deep in the Pisgah National Forest of Western North Carolina, the Killer Bees Honey apiary is nestled high on top of Walnut Cove Mountain.

The result is some of the most exquisite honey untouched by pesticides, fungicides and herbicides.
