Time to get more local honey to minimize my daughter's allergies. Quality/Quantity - My daughter told me today options are 12 oz, 22 oz or 42 oz jars. She got the 22 oz jar of local honey. Atmosphere - This is Andre's house, so no signage. Easy street parking. Service - His wife answered the door and she called Andre over who is very professional and responsive. He gave good feedback and instructions on the honey. Do not refrigerate, and since he stores them frozen (to not crystalize) to wait a day to defrost before using. Good job on your website and then letting your customers know that it is a home, not a store front. Price - $22 for 22 oz of honey. It was less expensive than the last visit. Looks like current pricing is $1 an ounce. Owner Suggestion - Congrats on all your success since 2009. read more

Twin Bee Apiaries - 5/1/24 Got more local honey. - Specialty Food Near Me - Alameda, California

Our family LOVES this local honey! We usually order the unfiltered and some honey sticks for my girls. Yum!

I've been lucky enough to have access to Andre's wonderful local honey for many years. I truly rely on it during allergy season as it clearly helps relieve my symptoms. Also have a teaspoon of it every morning in my coffee and would really miss that if I couldn't rely on the quality of it. For special days/times I like his CBD-infused jars, and love the opportunity to get it in a small size or order the larger one! I think all Alamedans should be soo glad that we have this GREAT local bee-keeper and expert with making this treat! Diane Foster read more

I've been getting g this honey for years! It's delicious and makes perfect holiday gifts when you want a special something from Alameda.

The honey is a perfect texture and flavor. Easy to order and pick up. I love that it is local!

I initially received a jar of this honey as a holiday gift from a friend who was out of the country. Andre hand delivered to my door. I was impressed. But more impressed by the quality. Ten years later, Twin Bee never disappoints on quality and timely pickups. read more

Very tasty honey, can freeze it to keep for longer. Nice and easy way to buy it directly from Andre.

Delicious honey with a distinct taste that sets it apart from store bought. Andre proved exceptional customer service. Pickup was super easy. I highly recommend! read more

Fantastic! The quality is top notch! My favorite place to buy my honey because it's close and convenient. The seller is very friendly and responsive. read more

I first met Andre while sampling his honey at the California State Fair in July of 2022. I noticed along with regular honey, he sells CBD infused honeys in 100, 200, and 300 mg doses. I have trouble sleeping at night, so I decided to try a jar of the 100 mg CBD honey. This stuff is amazing! I take a teaspoon of the Honey 2 hours before bed, and once I am asleep, I am out for the night! I sometimes have weird and vivid dreams but I think that is due to the deep sleep state I am finally achieving. Andre is very friendly, and you can pick up honey at his location in Alameda by arranging it with him first. Thank you Andre for helping me get the sleep I so desperately needed! read more

My favorite local honey. I give bottles to family and friends during the holidays. My neighbor told me it is the best honey she has ever tried. read more

Highly recommended!! Twin Bee Apiaries honey is delicious. Moved locally in Jan and wanted to get local honey to help with the allergies. Andre offers different sizes and filtered and unfiltered honey. I got the filtered honey and it's spectacular! We also go backpacking quite a bit and got honey sticks as well, cheaper than anywhere else. Easy to pick up, taste and quality is superior than anything I've ever purchased at a store and other local honey places. read more

Always great honey. I started off with just a small jar of honey, but have tried the honeycomb, honey sticks, and use the cbd honey in my morning cup of tea to help alleviate aches and pains. Andre is always super responsive and helpful. I love getting his emails as he shares information on his process and provides helpful links to things like how to use honey externally and always lets us know when to expect the next harvest. I've been buying his honey for years and will continue to do so for years to come. read more

I purchased this honey at the state fair in July... It sat untouched for about a month. I contracted covid a couple weeks ago. This honey has gotten me through it. I'm out of the honey now and realized how much I need more of it today and decided to look it up. I'm so excited to have found it and once I'm completely well, I'll be on my way to Alameda!! I'm getting a bigger jar this time too! Thank you so much!!!! read more

I had always used store bought honey but since using this honey it is so much better and I will not go back. I also have given it to friends and family. read more

Excellent honey! I mixed it with wheat grass powder and it makes such a delightful and healthy drink every morning. Will definitely sign up for more. Harry C. read more

The. Best. Honey. Ever! My friends and family can't get enough. Dealing with Andre is both pleasant and easy. Twin Bee Apiaries is truly a local treasure. read more

I needed some beeswax for a recipe and after reading a bunch of reviews on Amazon, realized this is best to buy local as there is no way of knowing what's actually in the beeswax purchased online. So, I contacted Andre and he was incredibly responsive, courteous, and helpful. I stopped by later in the day and he had my beeswax and several jars of honey order ready to go. I'm absolutely delighted with the opportunity to purchase high quality locally made products from a kind and knowledgeable neighbor. Will be back for sure! Thank you! read more

Andre's honey is delicious and our allergies have improved! We are so grateful and happy to have this local source. Thanks, Andre.

We are regulars and so grateful! Top quality, care, and responsive. A wonderful part of our community to have local honey from a caring, kind neighbor. read more

This honey is absolutely delicious. Total honey perfection. And I love buying from small local producers and it doesn't get more local than this! read more

Great honey! Always reliable and a local business!

Andre is super professional in all his honey dealings. He sells the honey at very reasonable prices and the taste is something else! I started using local raw honey to help treat my seasonal allergies and I can honestly say it has greatly lessened how often I experience the unpleasantness of seasonal allergies. I'd say he is the best option for local raw honey in Alameda. Give it a try to experience all the great health benefits of local raw honey! read more

Very very very good !! I'm so happy that I found this vendor at a holiday Faire in Alameda. Definitely would recommend & will be a repeat customer. read more

This local Alameda honey and other products sold are absolutely delicious and beautiful!

Absolutely excellent honey, locally produced by a knowledgeable, responsive bee keeper!

My mom came to visit and spotted this new . She tasted a little and liked it immediately. She said it tasted much better than store bought honey. After I told her that one of my company colleague raises bees and harvested it, she was impressed. read more

Andre's bees are clearly happy and producing amazing honey. He is super accommodating and very knowledgeable as well. Pretty awesome having a honey guy. read more

Twin Bee Apiaries has wonderful honey. I love that I can get honey produced with local Alameda bees. This honey is one sweet way to support sustainable local ecosystems and economies and make your food and treats extra delicious read more

I've been buying honey from Twin Bee Apiaries for three or four years now and every batch is the best I've tasted! For comparison sake I've tasted 'local honey' from other vendors (in locales outside of Alameda) and it hasn't come close to the amazingly fresh, really tasty honey Andre and his family produce. Twin Bee Apiaries honey is a staple in our house! I'd also recommend the baked goods, sweets and candies they make as well! read more

Super tasty honey reasonably priced. I'll be buying more next harvest!

So wonderful to have access to local honey in Alameda from a caring, conscientious, knowledgeable bee-keeper! This honey is delicious, and this beekeeper is a gift to our community. Whenever possible, I only buy honey from him. Thank you Twin Bee Apiaries for all you do! read more

We are so fortunate to have this delicious local honey here in Alameda. We have been enjoying Andre's honey daily the past couple of months having developed a 'stay at home' chai and tea routine! read more

We bought honey from Andre this past season and it is amazing! We have used it in several recipes and love it, and we've received comments from friends about how good it is. We will definitely buy from Andre again. He is very easy to do business with. He was super flexible about our appointment time-- and so we came by on a Saturday before our kid's nap and picked up several different sized containers. He let us taste it first, and even gave us a little lesson on the concept of backyard bee/honey cultivation. We believe in using local products, and also eat local honey to ward off allergies. The bottom line: buy Andre's honey whenever he has it, because it's very tasty, it's local, and it sells out quick! read more

I use a lot of honey in my baking (granola, granola bars, among many other yummy things) and this is the very best honey that I've ever found. When I can't get honey from Twin Bees, I buy some other local honey, which is usually good, but never as amazing as Twin Bees. Honestly, once you try it, you're hooked. (My mouth is watering as I type this.) I feel so lucky to have Andre nearby! read more

I have been buying honey from Andre for years now. I can't say enough good things about the Twin Bee Apiaries honey and the care with which Andre manages the hives. Like others have said we are fortunate to have this quality locally owned business in Alameda. read more

It was a new experience for me to buy local honey from an actual beekeeper rather than purchasing it from a health store. I was excited to try something local in the neighborhood. What a pleasant experience! The five star reviewers and customers have hit all the marks about Andre. He is prompt with responding to emails and filling orders. Andre takes pride in his product and business and he even followed up with me via email to make sure the honey tasted good (and it did). Definitely buying from him again! Thank you, Andre! read more
