Churi Honey is a smooth, rare honey harvested from the blossoms of the Chiuri tree (Diploknema butyracea), a species considered sacred in many Himalayan communities. It has a gentle, refined flavor and a long history of traditional use for energy and recovery.
The Chiuri Tree
The Chiuri tree grows slowly at high altitude and is valued in Himalayan communities for both its oil-rich seeds and its flowers, which bees forage for honey. Because Chiuri trees are less common than other forage sources, this honey is harvested in smaller quantities than our more widely available varieties, which is part of why it’s priced as a specialty honey.
Traditional Use for Recovery
Churi Honey is traditionally eaten by people recovering from physical exertion or illness, valued for its smooth texture and mild sweetness. As with any honey, it provides natural sugars for energy, and its traditional reputation for supporting recovery comes from generations of local use rather than clinical studies.
Sourcing & Purity
Our Churi Honey comes from high-altitude regions where Chiuri trees grow, collected by local beekeepers using traditional, low-impact methods. It is raw and unprocessed, so its color and texture can vary slightly between harvests.
