If you simply can’t get enough of our delicious raw honey, you’ll be excited to hear that we’ve launched a new range of flavours that hero some of Australia’s most amazing native botanical fruits and flora.
Our Davidson Plum, Finger Lime and Lemon Myrtle botanical infused raw honeys deliver all the exceptional health benefits you’ve come to expect from Meluka Australia products, while celebrating flavours that make up Australia’s incredibly diverse natural environment. Here’s what you need to know about our latest offering.
Davidson Plum
Meluka Australia’s Davidson Plum infused Raw Honey captures the essence of this fantastic fruit, which you can find right across the country during summer. Regarded as one of the best native plums on the planet, the Davidson plum has a deep, dark purple hue with a soft and juicy pulp that tingles your tastebuds with its sharp tart flavour.
Due to its earthy aroma and slightly bitter taste, Davidson plums have traditionally been used in jams and sauces. However, in their fresh and natural form, they are packed with high levels of antioxidants and nutritional value.
Davidson plums are an excellent source of potassium, which plays a vital role in your overall heart health; it also supports your nervous system and muscle movement, and helps your kidneys filter out toxins. Jam-packed with vitamin E, zinc and calcium, it’s a great fruit to support glowing, youthful-looking skin.
Our botanical infused raw honey takes all the remarkable health benefits of the Davidson plum and turns it into a 100% natural and delicious raw honey.
Use Meluka Australia’s Davidson Plum infused Raw Honey in:
- Granola
- Yoghurt
- Blue cheese
- Glazed meats
Finger Lime
Meluka Australia’s Finger Lime infused Raw Honey is our unique take on the fresh and vibrant Citrus australasica. Sought after by some of the biggest restaurants around the world, the finger lime is often referred to as “Australia’s caviar”, notably for its tiny yet delicious pearls of fruit.
In terms of nutritional value, the finger lime is packed with folate, potassium and vitamins E and C. In fact, each finger lime contains around three times as much vitamin C as you’ll find in a mandarin. Its natural antiseptic properties have also been used as a topical treatment for sores and boils.
The taste of a fresh finger lime is an experience everyone should have at least once – the juicy pearls burst with zesty flavour, smacking your tastebuds with a uniquely sweet and citrusy tang.
This fruity infused raw honey takes the finger lime to the next level and can be used in a variety of tasty recipes.
Use Meluka Australia’s Finger Lime infused Raw Honey in:
- Salad dressing
- Seafood
- Granitas
- Aged pecorino
- Desserts
Lemon Myrtle
Meluka Australia’s Lemon Myrtle infused Raw Honey is our expression of Backhousia citriodora, the stunning Australian native shrub that is found along the wet coastal parts of northern New South Wales and southern Queensland. With trees growing up to three-metres tall, their clusters of feathery flowers appear in autumn and release a spectacular fragrance.
Ask anyone to name an Australian native botanical and you’ll invariably hear “lemon myrtle” in response. The fragrant lemon-lime scent complements many dishes – both sweet and savoury – in modern Australian restaurants. Fish, chicken, ice cream or sorbet; lemon myrtle is a match made in heaven.
Lemon myrtle is a powerful antimicrobial and antibiotic, so it’s no wonder that it’s been used for treating and preventing bacterial infections for generations. The oils released in lemon myrtle teas are also used to support immune health.
Our Lemon Myrtle infused raw honey takes all the best bits of this native botanical and will keep you coming back for more.
Use Meluka Australia’s Lemon Myrtle infused Raw Honey in:
- Roasted root vegetables
- Pancakes
- Goat’s cheese
- Dips
- Herbal and black teas
