Description

Beeswax absolute is a viscous to solid substance at room temperature, with a deep golden to dark brown color.

It is extracted from honeycomb using solvents, resulting in a beeswax concrete that is then processed with alcohol to produce the absolute.

The aroma is intensely honey-like with subtle balsamic and tobacco notes, which can vary slightly depending on the flowers and ecosystem where the bees collected nectar.
