🔬 Laboratory data
Iga partii meest on sõltumatult testitud Eesti Keskkonnauuringute Keskuse akrediteeritud katselaboris. Müügis olev mesi on 2025. aasta saagist; allpool leiad analüüsiandmed, mis on teostatud 2023. aasta proovidest (sama tootmismetoodika).
Summary of indicators
All indicators comfortably exceed the requirements set out in Regulation No 104 of 20 November 2014 issued by the EU and the Estonian Minister for Agriculture.
| Sample | Humidity standard <20% |
Diastase standard >8 |
HMF standard <40 mg/kg |
Invertase | Electrical conductivity |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 🌸 Pajuõiepärl Rehearsal I · 22 June 2023 |
15,9% | 20,5 | <1 mg/kg | 170 U/kg | 0.30 mS/cm |

What do these figures mean?
Humidity <20% — the honey is ripe and has a long shelf life. Diastase >8 — natural enzymes preserved (the honey has not been heat-treated). HMF <40 mg/kg — the honey is fresh and unprocessed. A low HMF level indicates that the honey is neither stale nor heat-treated.

🌾 Pollen analysis
Microscopic pollen analysis (melissopollenology) is used to identify the plants from which the honey originates. This determines the honey’s flavour, colour and character.

🍯 Ingredients of the sugars
Sugar composition of natural honey (by weight).
| Sample | Fructose | Glucose | Maltose | Sucrose |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 🌸 Pajuõiepärl | 38% | 38% | 1,7% | <0.5% |
| 🌼 Ristikulaine | 38% | 36% | 2,2% | <0.5% |
| 🌲 Metsahõng | 37% | 33% | 1,7% | <0.5% |
Low sucrose content <0.5% proves that the honey has not been processed or diluted with sugar. Natural honey consists mainly of fructose and glucose, which are easily digestible.
🏛️ Our history
Great-grandfather's barn — our history
This hand-cranked honey extractor belonged to my great-grandfather and symbolises our family’s long tradition of beekeeping. These days we use more modern equipment, but we still adhere to the same principles — gentle handling and unpasteurised honey.
