Smooth texture, don't be afraid!
Product has smooth texture, sweet solid taste. Used before bed. Helped with tranquility.
Making it more affordable would definitely bring in a lot more business. I would consider buying in bulk for a very nice discount. I felt the healthy benefits the following day.
Customer service and PR are on point. They are hands on with every order. You're nailing the repeat business is the best business motto!

Wow, this review has our whole hive buzzing, thank you so much! 🐝 We love hearing that the honey helped you wind down and that you felt those benefits the next day, that's exactly the kind of experience we harvest for. Your feedback on pricing and bulk options is genuinely noted, and we're always working on ways to make the wild more accessible. You're clearly a natural at this, and we'd love to have you back for more.

I thought the effects would be stronger from the way people online talk about it, but I’m glad it’s not overwhelming. It feels natural and mellow instead of intense. Definitely more of a relaxing vibe product than a party thing.

Hi Steve!
This is exactly the vibe we live for! 🍯🎶 Meditation music, a warm relaxation washing over you, and Mad Honey doing its thing, honestly that sounds like the perfect evening. You nailed the approach too, starting with one teaspoon and giving it time before going for more. That's the sweet spot right there. So happy it landed just right for you, and thank you so much for sharing this little moment with us! 🐝

Mad Honey is fantastic.
Well like always with a new product I was skeptical I'm not going to lie but mad honey is the real deal. I have a hard time slowing my mind down enough to sleep well I'm always thinking about all kinds of things. And I'm not a pill person so I don't like sleeping pills they leave you groggy and really sluggish the next day. Mad honey is absolutely perfect. It is the perfect slowdown effect for easy no effort sleep. And it's the best honey I have ever tasted and I love honey lol. I highly recommend for anyone that is just looking for an easy slowdown and a wonderful feeling.

We love this so much, from skeptic to sweet believer! 🍯 Sleep struggles are so real, and finding something natural that actually works without the next-day grogginess is a total game changer. That gentle slowdown effect is exactly what Mad Honey has been treasured for across generations, and knowing it's working for you means everything to us. The fact that you're a honey lover who rates the taste? That's the seal of approval we didn't know we needed. 🐝

Ordering 500mg jars and it not doing what it was with the smaller jars.....no response when spending over £500 plus having to spend nearly £50 for each delivery over the weight of just one small wooden pot. Same issue wifh the only 1/3 of what there should have bee. In the last two wooden pots. Like I said almost like their waiting for the 60 days of refunds to run out before you can complain so they know they have a bad product so the refund within 60 days in Ingenuous. No responses not one until now to serious emails. 3 different BAD experiences APRIL AND MAY

Not gonna lie
Not gonna lie, I expected the taste to be horrible because of all the wild honey talk. Ended up being one of the nicest tasting honeys I’ve had. Effects are smooth too, more calming than intense.

Disappointing – Beautiful Packaging but Zero Effects
I bought the 100g wooden jar to try authentic mad honey. I started responsibly with 1 teaspoon and felt absolutely nothing after waiting. Over the course of the evening, I ended up taking another 4 to 5 teaspoons, and eventually finished the entire jar. Zero physical effects, zero warmth, and zero relaxation. It looks great on the counter, but this specific batch just feels like expensive standard table honey in a nice wooden jar

Hi Rumel!
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience, and for starting responsibly with a small dose, that's exactly the right approach! Real Mad Honey is a completely natural, wild-harvested product, which means the experience can genuinely vary from person to person. Factors like metabolism, body weight, tolerance, and whether you've eaten beforehand all play a role in how it feels.
Every single batch we sell is independently lab-tested for authentic grayanotoxin content, you can check the exact results for your batch at realmadhoney.com/pages/lab-report. We stand behind the quality completely.
We'd really love to make this right for you. Please reach out to us at support@realmadhoney.com with your order number and we'll personally look into this together.
Warm regards,

Product Didn't Work for Me, But Customer Support Was Outstanding
My original experience wasn't great. I received the order a few days earlier and tried it as directed. After waiting over two hours, I had finished the entire 50ml jar and didn't experience any effects, which was disappointing.
However, after contacting customer support, the situation was handled exceptionally well. The customer care team responded quickly, listened to my concerns, and treated me with professionalism and respect throughout the process. They ultimately provided a full refund without any hassle.
While the product didn't work for me personally, I cannot fault the company's customer service. Their communication was excellent, and they genuinely cared about resolving the issue. Based on my experience with their support team, I would happily recommend them for their outstanding customer care.

Hi Cosmin!
We appreciate you sharing this! Just to offer a bit of context, consuming a full 50g jar in one session is actually well beyond the recommended amount, and the method matters just as much as the quantity. The sweet spot for most people is 1–2 tablespoons on an empty stomach, with a proper 45–60 minute wait before considering more.
Sensitivity to the natural grayanotoxins in our honey also varies quite a bit depending on factors like metabolism, body weight, and timing, so the same serving can feel very different from one person to the next.
You can verify the potency of your exact batch at realmadhoney.com/pages/lab-report, every jar is lab-tested before it ships, so the numbers are there for you to see directly.
Drop us a message at support@realmadhoney.com with your order number and we'd be happy to work through this with you personally. 🐝

Apart from being delicious
Apart from being delicious, this honey has helped me sleep properly for the first time in years. A really small amount before bed leads to complete relaxation and restful sleep with no foggy head in the morning. I’ve given this to two friends and they are both seeing the same result.

I was a heroin user for 13 years and have been sober for 6. Because of the time I used my sleep has been completely wrecked ever since getting sober. I can actually sleep for a solid 4 to 5 hours now compared to the 1 to 2 hours I was getting! The other amazing thing is I don't have to use the honey every night or even every other night for the effects to continue to stay. People who are looking for a high are the reason they get negative reviews this is medicine as when you use as such you'll get the results.

Hi Nick!
This is one of those reviews that stays with you. Thank you for being so open about your journey, 6 years of sobriety is something to be incredibly proud of, and the sleep struggles that come with recovery are real and often overlooked. Going from 1–2 hours to 4–5 consistent hours is a meaningful change, and we're really glad to hear it. 🍯
You also put it in a way that we couldn't say better ourselves, when it's approached as the traditional medicine it truly is, with care and the right intention, the results follow. That wisdom is what Real Mad Honey was built on, and it means a great deal to see it reflected in your experience.
