Omani Frankincense Honey
A honey infused with history – deep, healing, and distinctly Omani.
Harvested from the nectar of wild desert blossoms near Boswellia sacra trees in southern Oman, this rare frankincense honey is crafted by native bees that thrive in the harsh Dhofar mountain climate. What results is a golden-amber honey, smooth in texture, and rich in taste – subtly earthy with a sweet resinous note reminiscent of Hojari frankincense itself.
Scientific studies have shown that frankincense trees produce bioactive compounds like boswellic acids, known for their anti-inflammatory and immune-boosting properties. When bees feed near these trees, their honey naturally absorbs traces of these therapeutic agents.
Scientific Highlights:
- • Contains boswellic acids – helps reduce chronic inflammation and oxidative stress.
- • High in Lactobacillus kunkeei – supports gut microbiome balance and digestive comfort.
- • Loaded with enzymes like glucose oxidase – helps detox the body and improve immunity.

Oman bans the export and import of bees to protect the genetic purity of its native Apis mellifera jemenitica – a desert-adapted honeybee recognized by the FAO. A 2021 study published in the Journal of Apicultural Research found that Omani bees produce honey richer in probiotics compared to other breeds.
