We’re delighted to announce that our Lemon and Ginger Honey infusion has won a distinguished #GreatTasteAward from the Guild of Fine Food! 🏆   The Great Taste Awards is the world’s largest and most respected accreditation scheme for artisan and speciality food and drink producers.✨  This recognition highlights the exceptional taste and quality of our product at CarnieBees 🍯. Our Lemon and Ginger #Honey Infusion has a bold kick that you’ll either love or hate. But what did the judges have to say about it?   🏆 1 Star Award   "This thick textured creamy honey with a surprise - and a considerable kick. The warmth of lemon leads the parade, but it is quickly followed by the ginger, which is robust and long-lasting - and keeps on growing through the journey."   "Thick has a thick fudgy texture, almost chewy and bold aroma of ginger. This brings to mind ginger nut biscuits. A definite fiery note of heat from the ginger makes this really tickle alongside a brightness from the lemon. The honey almost get forgotten, coming into third place - we would like the honey to shine more as the ginger is dominant. Any floral blossom notes have been squashed by the ginger. We are left with ginger heat, not unpleasant but persistent"   "This is a rich creamy texture and there is an initial honey sweetness on the palate. But within seconds the ginger comes through and is overwhelming. You could question whether lemon and ginger is a good addition to honey, and perhaps it could work, but in this case, the ginger is so fierce and raw that it masks the honey and lemon."   Next year, we’re looking to submit more infusions for the awards and hopefully win even more! #Smallbusiness #Aberdeen #greattaste

🌏 Today, we're excited as we celebrate our planet and the incredible pollinators that make our ecosystem thrive 🐝 Did you know bees pollinate over 66% of the world's crop species? They contribute to one-third of our food, including fruits, nuts, vegetables, and more. 🍎 By promoting bee-friendly practices, supporting local biodiversity, and educating our community about the importance of pollinators, we're promoting a healthier planet for generations to come. 🌼🌎 Together, we can create a sweeter, more sustainable world where every bee can thrive and every garden can flourish. 🌱 Do you like to garden?

Another great Saturday session with the #RGUAccelerator team at ONE Tech Hub 🚀

A few months ago, I was craving some downtime—a chance to just relax and unwind at home. But let's face it, can we really relax at home... No! So, I had an idea—why not create an afternoon filled with all things wellness and feminine energy? For April, I've teamed up with @solastaskin to bring you an afternoon of pure self-care goodness. Picture lymphatic guided facial massage, soothing yoga session, and plenty of time to connect with like-minded souls. This perfectly aligns with CarnieBees’s mission to inspire individuals to listen to their bodies and take health into their own hands. See you there! ☀️ 📍Breathing Space Aberdeen https://lnkd.in/ezXTZhr2 #connection #networking #event #aberdeen #wellness #scotland
