Our Quality Standards

Our laboratory checks ensure that only pure, active, and perfectly preserved Nepalese cliff-honey enters consumer packages. We test to check off each of the parameters below:

 

Purity Verification

Checks that our shipments remain 100% pure, organic honey with absolutely zero added cane syrups, starch additives, or artificial thickeners.

Moisture Content

Ensuring precise ambient moisture density to avert premature honey fermentation without reducing the thick traditional texture.

Grayanotoxin Profile

Analyzing the exact diterpene concentrations (Grayanotoxin-I & II) to calibrate dosage guidelines accurately.

Pollen Analysis

Confirms the presence of authentic Rhododendron Luteum and Rhododendron Ponticum pollen spores, verifying geographical Nepalese origins.

Sugar Profile

Calculates relative ratios of fructose and glucose. Helps rule out artificial syrup feeding or honey diluting.

Heavy Metal Screening

Strict screening for Lead, Mercury, Arsenic, and Cadmium to prove zero environmental runoff contamination.

Microbiological Safety

Scanning for bacteria such as E. coli, Salmonella, yeasts, and molds to certify safe consumer storage.

Visual & Packaging Inspection

Inspects sealing integrity and color quality to ensure no environmental contaminants enter during transit.

Batch Traceability

Maps each unique jar back to its respective cliff location, collection date, and testing timeline using the batch serial code.

Complete Chemical Analysis

Our Laboratory Testing Criteria

We run targeted screens for every single component. Here is exactly what our labs look for and measure:

Analysis Section
🧪

Physico-Chemical Analysis

Moisture Content

Measures water density. Standard target is below 18.5%.

PASS STANDARD

Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF)

Confirms raw status. Low values prove the honey hasn't been overheated or artificially pasteurized.

PASS STANDARD

Fructose & Glucose Levels

Ratios prove natural foraging and authenticate raw state.

PASS STANDARD

Pollen Identification

Authenticates floral source and verifies Nepalese geography.

PASS STANDARD

Grayanotoxin Analysis

Confirms concentration of Grayanotoxin-I and Grayanotoxin-II.

PASS STANDARD
☣️

Microbiology & Heavy Metals Safety

Heavy Metals Screening

Screens for Lead, Mercury, Arsenic, and Cadmium.

PASS STANDARD

Yeast & Mold Count

Ensures stability and prevents quality deterioration.

PASS STANDARD

Salmonella Screening

Ensures total safety from biological bacteria.

NEGATIVE / ABSENT

E. coli Testing

Confirms pure sanitation throughout extraction and packaging.

NEGATIVE / ABSENT

Total Plate Count (TPC)

Maintains complete hygienic profile across all yields.

  • How to Trace Your Jar

Locate Your Batch ID

Turn your jar to find the golden batch identification code printed at the bottom of the informational label. Enter this ID into our lookup tool below to pull your jar’s chromatography profile instantly.

  • Sample Batch Code

N-LTM-2026-B81

From Cliff Face to Jar

Batch Traceability

Every jar includes a unique batch number that allows complete traceability from harvesting through packaging. Customers can match their batch number with the corresponding Certificate of Analysis (COA) available on this page.

Our commitment is absolute: we keep exact, unblended cataloging logs of every collection. We do not blend multiple regional harvests, preserving the exact botanical footprint of each specific cliff location.

Safe Packaging Features

Our packaging process is designed to preserve freshness and product integrity. Key quality attributes include:

Food-grade glass containers to protect active active compounds

Leak-resistant airtight sealing safeguards during shipping

Tamper-evident shrink bands ensure product integrity

Secure protective shipping materials engineered for global air transport

Manufacturing & Quality Control

Our production process follows a strict chain of custody:

Wild harvesting

Collected from cliffs in Nepal's Annapurna range.

Careful filtering

Cold-filtered once to gently remove organic debris.

Batch separation & Lab analysis

Samples tested to verify purity and potency before packaging.

Final shipment approval

Every batch is reviewed before being released for international shipping.

1. Good Processing (GP)

Raw combs are processed in an airtight, dust-free food laboratory in Kathmandu. We employ cold gravitational filtration to settle natural honey yields:

  • No Pasteurization: Kept strictly under 35°C (95°F) to ensure enzymes and natural active grayanotoxins remain intact.
  • Single Filtration: Coarse stainless-steel filters remove larger wax particles while allowing natural microscopic rhododendron pollen spores to remain.

2. Good Storage
Practices (GSP)

Raw mad honey is extremely sensitive to heat fluctuation, solar exposure, and humidity. Our facility features specialized holding rooms:

  • Stainless Steel 316L Drums: Non-reactive, food-grade storage drums isolate honey from any potential material leaching or plastic microparticles.
  • Climate Controlled: Ambient warehouse storage is kept strictly between 18°C and 22°C with controlled relative humidity (below 50%) to mitigate ambient moisture re-absorption.

3. Good Packaging (GPK)

To preserve the bio-active molecules, final bottling happens under strict sanitary frameworks prior to international air shipping:

  • Dark Amber Glass Jars: Prevents UV light penetration which degrades critical enzymes and organic compounds over transit periods.
  • Hermetic Gasket Seals: Airtight silicone gaskets block oxygen ingress, safeguarding against oxidation and product deterioration during high-altitude air travel.

Frequently Asked Questions

Still have questions? We’re here to help anytime.

Is every batch tested?
Yes. Every production batch undergoes quality control before packaging. We run extensive screens at partner analytical laboratories in Kathmandu to map grayanotoxins, screen out synthetic chemicals, and confirm zero microbial contamination.
Yes. Batch-specific laboratory reports are available for download. You can use our interactive Batch Lookup tool on this page to dynamically generate your Certificate of Analysis (COA) or choose master safety files from our directory.
The batch number is printed clearly on the back of your product label. You can type this code (for example: N-LTM-2026-B81) directly into our lookup engine above to fetch its specific test criteria.
 
Mad Honey is a natural product harvested from wild rhododendron flowers, so grayanotoxin levels may naturally vary between harvests. Factors such as exact collection elevation, season precipitation, and wild hive colony populations create slight biological variances, making trace validation so important.
