From the Tasmanian wilderness, since 1920

Leatherwood honey comes from the leatherwood tree, which grows wild only in the cool, ancient rainforests of western Tasmania. That narrow origin is why it's rare and why it tastes like nothing else — bold and aromatic, floral and slightly spicy, with a lingering perfume.

R. Stephens is Tasmania's oldest and largest leatherwood producer, started by Robert Stephens in 1920 and still based at Mole Creek. The hives sit deep in remote, unfarmed forest — which is exactly why the honey is certified organic. It's raw: untreated and unpasteurized.

Who it's for

Honey lovers and connoisseurs who want a genuinely rare, intensely flavored honey — people who find ordinary honey forgettable. It stands up to strong cheese, sourdough, oatmeal and black tea. Never give honey to a baby under 12 months.

FAQs

What is leatherwood honey?

Honey made by bees foraging the leatherwood tree, which grows wild only in Tasmania's western rainforests. That narrow origin is why it's rare and why it tastes like nothing else.

Why is it certified organic?

The hives are placed deep in remote, unfarmed wilderness, away from agriculture and spraying, so the honey qualifies as certified organic.

It tastes much stronger than my usual honey — is that right?

Yes. Leatherwood is meant to be bold and aromatic. That intensity is the point, and it's why it has a following among honey connoisseurs.

Does it crystallize, and how do I store it?

Keep it in a cool, dry cupboard, not the fridge. Raw honey naturally crystallizes over time — stand the jar in warm (not boiling) water and stir to return it to liquid.
