Tried this before handling a long day of meetings and surprisingly stayed locked in the whole afternoon. Not jittery like energy drinks, just cleaner focus. Didn’t expect honey to actually do that.

Too much money for very little effect
Too much money for very little effect. £35 for three-four spoonfuls, won’t be buying again.

Hi Rich!
Thank you for being honest about this. Here's the honest picture: our honey is wild-harvested from remote Himalayan cliffs in limited seasonal batches, and every batch is lab-tested, which is a big part of why it costs more than the honey on a supermarket shelf. It's also built for small servings rather than big spoonfuls, so a jar tends to stretch further than expected.
We'd genuinely love to understand your experience better, so reach out to us at support@realmadhoney.com with your order number and the name on the order, and we'll make sure you're looked after.
Warm regards,
The Real Mad Honey Team 🐝

Hi FInn!
Thank you so much for this! We love that it's become a nightly ritual for you and that you look forward to that calm, wind-down feeling at the end of the day. That gentle settling is exactly what so many people enjoy about it. It truly means a lot to hear you're getting so much out of your honey, thank you for sharing, and enjoy every peaceful evening!
Warm regards,

I think it's a scam
Ordered 3 jars and they arrived 4 days later which was good. However I have tried varied amounts from 1 to 5 teaspoons and I have not felt a thing different. I honestly believe this company are deliberately scamming people with cheap nasty honey.

Hi Stuart!
We really appreciate you taking the time to share this, and we're sorry the experience didn't live up to what you were hoping for.
Authenticity is everything to us, which is exactly why every batch is independently lab-tested and those reports are public for anyone to check at https://www.realmadhoney.com/pages/lab-report. With a natural product, individual sensitivity genuinely varies, so the same amount can feel different from one person to the next.
We'd love to turn this around for you, so please reach out at support@realmadhoney.com with your order number and we'll do everything we can to help.
Warm regards,

Very calming and relaxing at bedtime
Very calming and relaxing at bedtime, but taking it every evening means the jar runs out far too quickly. The honey settles in the jar meaning it is thicker at the end

Hi David!
Thank you for the lovely review! We're so glad it's become a calming part of your bedtime routine, though we do have to smile at the jar running out too quickly (a good sign, we think!). As for the thicker texture toward the end, that's completely natural, being raw and unfiltered, the honey can settle over time. It's still perfectly good to enjoy, and if it ever firms up too much, a jar sitting briefly in warm water loosens it right back up. Thanks for sharing, and enjoy every last spoonful!
Warm regards,

Great for a peaceful nights sleep
I bought this honey hoping it would relax me at night as my brain tends to go hyper at night. Although it is expensive, it's all natural and helps me sleep. Unlike sleeping tablets or other medications it doesn't make you feel groggy in the morning. I have bought this product a dozen times. If you need to relax or sleep, it's great without side effects. Take a teaspoon before bedtime and you'll have a restful sleep.

We're so glad you've found something you enjoy in your evening routine, and that a teaspoon before bed has become a ritual you look forward to. Wild-harvested and all-natural is exactly what we're about, so it's lovely to hear that resonates with you too. Thank you for being part of the family, here's to many more restful evenings!

Good product
The delivery has already arrived very quickly twice. Unfortunately, in the second package, 1 glass opened and about 1/4 was lost. At the price of this product, very annoying! Otherwise everything is ok and the effect comes when you have eaten enough!

Thanks for flagging it, and enjoy the rest of your honey!

Hi Aw!
Thank you for sharing this! That calm, relaxed feeling is exactly what so many people appreciate, a gentle wind-down rather than anything wild. It sounds like it settled in just the way it should for you, and we're so glad it helped you unwind. Thanks for the kind words on the quality too. Enjoy every spoonful!

I love this! I have a teaspoonful on my toast for breakfast and have a much brighter day. Nothing major, I caught myself singing along to the radio. Just better somehow.

Hi Stephanie!
Okay, the radio singalong got us right in the heart 🐝 That "nothing major, just better somehow" feeling is honestly our favorite way to hear it described, a gentle lift to the day, exactly as intended. A teaspoon on toast is a beautiful little ritual too. Thanks for sharing the good vibes with us 🍯 Here's to many more bright mornings!

This Honey is DELICIOUS and rare
This Honey is DELICIOUS, smells, tastes and feels great. Tried both Nepali and Turkish. I'm a former bee keeper and seeker of wild honeys from all over the world. Canada customs spilled my first shipment. Real Mad Honey were incredibly gracious about replacing the order, free. Correspondence was immediate. I support small businesses that support wild honey gatherers !! Five Stars.

Hi Charles!
What a review to wake up to! Coming from a former beekeeper and a genuine seeker of wild honeys, that means the world to us, you know exactly what you're tasting, so hearing you loved both the Nepali and Turkish is the best kind of compliment. We're just sorry customs gave your first shipment such a rough welcome, but we're really glad we could get a fresh one out to you quickly. Thank you for supporting small businesses and the wild honey gatherers behind every jar, that's the heart of what we do. Enjoy every spoonful, and come back anytime.

Best by far
The real mad hunny is by far the best you can get.
The taste is extraordinary, a taste bud explosion, a taste you always want more of.
The bamboo pots and spoon is an amazing touch too.
I have more than one spoon at a time and find my mind is more free, it helps me focus and helps you sleep well too.
I’ll always go back for more hunny, it’s out of this world, in more ways than one.

Hi Klant!
We hear you, and we'd love the chance to make this right. Every jar of Real Mad Honey is wild-harvested in remote mountain regions during the rhododendron bloom, then independently lab-tested batch by batch, that testing is exactly how we keep it authentic and transparent, and we're always happy to share the results. The effects can genuinely differ from one person to the next, as metabolism, tolerance, body weight, and timing all play a part in how strong it feels. We'd also like to get to the bottom of this, so please reach out to us at support@realmadhoney.com with your order number and the name on your order, and we'll take care of it straight away.
