The honey house (see above) has state-of-the-art extraction equipment. The machinery uncaps the comb and uses centrifugal force to separate out the honey. It is minimally strained to remove wax particles, and then pumped to holding tanks. There it is bottled and sealed. You can be assured that MtnHoney is never heated, thus preserving all the natural enzymes, anti microbial properties and microbial qualities that nature intended.
