Meet the Maker: Hyde Park Honey
Join Firmdale's Design Director, Willow Kemp, as she shares the story behind Hyde Park Honey, produced by her husband, Henry Steel, in partnership with The London Beekeepers. From the hives of Hyde Park to the illustration on every jar, this small-batch honey celebrates one of London's most treasured green spaces.
Hyde Park Honey brings together Willow Kemp's illustrations and the work of her husband, Henry Steel, who produces the honey alongside The London Beekeepers from hives nestled within Hyde Park.
Harvested from Prince of Wales Lodge and produced in a limited run of just 150 jars, each batch reflects the flowers, trees and gardens that make this corner of the city so unique. The label itself features Willow's illustration of the lodge, turning every jar into a small celebration of the park and its remarkable pollinators.
The honey has even inspired a new cocktail at Refuel Bar at The Soho Hotel, where its delicate floral notes are paired with English smoky whisky, ginger cordial and lemon. From the hive to the jar to the bar, it's a little taste of London, with a story behind every spoonful.
