Grenadian honey is world class. This was proven when the Grenadian honey exhibits won the first six places in the 3A Open category at this year’s honey show in England which took place from November 14-16.

Six beekeepers achieved international recognition for Grenada when they were awarded the first six prizes in the international section of the prestigious 2002 London Honey Show. For a tiny island no bigger than a pinhead on the world map this is a remarkable accomplishment.

LONDON, England, Friday November 13, 2015 –The highly coveted Medal of Ukraine, which is awarded to the best honey in the world outside of the British Isles, was won this year by a boutique organic apiary from the Caribbean island of Grenada.

LONDON, England -- For the second straight year, the Jessamine Eden apiary in Grenada has won the first prize for the best honey in the world at the 85th annual UK International Honey Show in London.
