Do you know – Most of the world’s commercial honey comes from Apis mellifera — commonly called the European or Western honey bee. This species is widely farmed because it produces large quantities of honey, adapts well to different climates, and is easy to manage in modern beekeeping systems.

Your Honey comes from Apis Cerana species of bees which are the Indian or the Asian honey bees. The production of honey is much lower as compared to the widely available honey from Apis mellifera
