It is still liquid although thick. I bake with it all the time and I can pour it into a measuring cup. This is only for the Buckwheat not the other honey they sell which is more along the consistency of shortening.

This is the best honey (STAKICH with Antioxidant) I have ever bought. One spoon will make you feel the difference and not sure why you're bothered by crystallised or runny?

It's raw honey that has been crystallized or "creamed", raw honey will naturally crystallize after about 2 to 3 months. It gives the honey a lighter color, creamier texture, and can even give the honey a sightly sweeter flavor. Even processed and heated honey will crystallize after about year or so, but the crystallization that takes place with processed honey leaves it crunchy and unappealing to me. All honey, even this raw honey start out golden and flowing. Yes, that means your jar of honey from this company is already 2 to 3 months old(or older) at time of purchase, but since honey never really goes bad, that fact doesn't bother me.

There was some 'graininess' but it never seemed to pose a problem for me. It won't hurt it if you warm it slightly as with setting it in a cup of hot water for awhile. Your body heat would probably work with the honey on a bandage but the water would work best. It would be best to keep the actual applicator end out of the water but as with any honey the crystallizing is not abnormal. I visited my foot doctor this morning and she recommended the honey to another patient who had foot ulcers like myself. Both of us are a testament that the product works. My foot sores of almost a decade old are completely healed and his are very close. Good luck! There was some 'graininess' but it never seemed to pose a problem for me.

Mine is not "goopy" at all. It has the consistancy of a light oil? That's the best way I can describe it. Its very watery with the tiniest bit of thickness. When I shake the bottle, it sounds the same as if I'm shaking jojoba oil by dessert essence. Hope this helps!

Are you shaking the bottle beforehand? Other than that, sounds normal to me. It has a very runny consistency.

I will write what is on the label: We only use low temperature melting and simple straining to maintain all the pollens, enzymes, vitamins and minerals that overheating and force-filtering destroy. This is just a part of the wording. On the front it states: RAW AND GENTLY FILTERED and pure honey.

My thoughts also. Where is the UMF licensee. I didn't find on the list - http://www.umf.org.nz/licenseesA comment said this was a good company - BUT where is the Proof that this is PURE Manuka Honey.

The product is stickey in your hands. I would say the consistency is more like a gel. Definetly not as thick as toothpaste or cookie dough. And it is not runny at all. I would add that it is a cheap product. Would not hurt to check it out, but there are other, much more quality products out there.

Not being a connoisseur of raw honey -I cannot directly and absolutely say its 100% raw, but it is very palatable and has all the characteristics of raw honey. I should hope it is not falsely advertised and is just what it says. P.S. - I love it!!!!

Sometimes the honey does crystalize. If that happens, just put the tube in a mug of warm water and that should help.

Hey there! Well firstly, the company is pretty well known by people around the world for the quality of their product. Secondly, the honey is going to be a much darker and thicker. It'll taste a lot different compared to the usual honey somebody can buy off the store, and it is somewhat "gritty". I really like it, and it will be pretty obvious to tell the difference between the two once you receive it!

Hi Lori, I am sending you a private email as well. First I am sorry that you have a poor bottle. That's not good by any standard. What you have Is not an "old" bottle (because we don't have any old ones) but a bottle with too much scent. I have organised a replacement for you. Again my apologies for your inconvenience.And a huge THANK YOU to all who responded to let you know about our customer service. It is lovely to see that so many people know how much we care about each and every customer and that we do respond to every email we receive and every question we get asked.

I'd send it back. It could be old, or melted and re-solidified. It's supposed to be creamy, not grainy.

It is possible, because it is exposed, but I haven't had to much of an issue. Some brands of honey I have gotten have crystalized in it, but I have seen that also happen in sealed jars so I don't really count that against the jar itself. If you put a jam or something else in it I could see a possible drying out situation. If you use it for honey, and see the honey crystalize just put the jar in a bowl of hot water and it clears up in a few minutes (don't microwave it-I was told it kills the honey's enzymes).

I ddn't notice that when I ordered to be honest. I can say that I liked it and I should have ordered another month's supply. I switched to something else and hated making that choice. I plan to purchase this product again in the very near future. It may not be for everyone but I would say try it out and see for yourself. It's not bad tasting or anything like that and it only takes a few seconds to mix. Post your thoughts once you try it so I can see if you agree with me. Thanks for asking.

Local producers here in WV warm honey to around body temp to package it. I can't swear it is totally raw, but it appears to be heated some for packaging. We love its flavor. I have one bottle that has crystalized just like what I buy from my neighbor does.
