What it is

A rare honey, made by bees that don't sting

Melipona beecheii is a stingless bee native to the Yucatán Peninsula. The Maya kept these bees for centuries, and their honey was reserved for ceremonies and remedies rather than everyday sweetening.

Its nectar is more fluid and higher in moisture than common honey, pale amber in color, with a sweet profile and tart notes. A single hive produces only about one liter a year, which is why it comes in dropper bottles and limited quantities.

  • Raw and unprocessed: keeps the hive's enzymes and nutrients
  • Naturally fluid, rich texture thanks to its purity
  • Sweet and slightly citrusy, unlike Apis honey
  • Dropper bottle for controlled serving sizes

Why choose it

What makes melipona honey special

Mayan tradition, ethical harvesting, and a purity you notice from the first drop.

🍯

Raw and unprocessed

Never pasteurized or over-filtered, so it keeps the enzymes, pollen and natural nutrients of the hive.

💎

Rare and small-batch

A melipona hive yields a fraction of what a common hive produces. Every bottle comes from a limited harvest.

🍟

Distinctive taste

Lighter and more fluid than traditional honey, with a sweet-tart balance that works on its own, in tea, or over fruit.

🌿

No preservatives

One single ingredient: honey. No added sugars, no colorings, no artificial additives.

👩

Fair trade

We work with meliponicultores in Yucatán and pay fair prices for every harvest.

Conservation

Buying MEXIBOKU helps protect the stingless bee, essential to pollinating the peninsula's native plants.

From the hive to your home

Traditional meliponiculture

The same method the Maya used for centuries, kept alive today by beekeeping families.

STEP 01

Jobón hives

The bees live in hollow logs or wooden boxes, placed in the shade near native blooms. Their stingers aren't removed: they simply don't have any.

STEP 02

First extraction

Honey is drawn from the comb's pots once or twice a year, always leaving enough reserves for the colony.

STEP 03

Cold bottling

It's lightly filtered and bottled in dropper jars without heating, so it reaches you exactly as it left the hive.

Frequently asked questions

Before your first bottle

Why is the bottle so small?

A melipona hive produces about one liter of honey per year, compared with dozens from a conventional hive. That's why it comes in 10 to 30 ml dropper bottles and is taken in small amounts.

How do I take it?

Straight from the dropper, dissolved in warm water or tea, or added to fruit and desserts. Because it's more fluid, it mixes easily.

Does it crystallize?

Melipona honey has more moisture than common honey, so it usually stays liquid. Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct light.

Is it really from stingless bees?

Yes. All our honey comes from Melipona hives, known locally as jimerito, raised by meliponicultores in Mexico.
