Rowse Honey Recensioni 

After reading that cheap honey is not real honey I bought Rowse as the web site gave the impression that it was an independent bee farm, turns out it is owned by Valeo food group, I rang to enquire if honey was 100% as label states blend of non EU honey April assured me it is however, she rudely kept on talking over me when I had not finished I suggested that the front of bottle should state 100% Honey she then informed me that the Company is aware of concerns with label information but to change the label is expensive! I replied that I am not bloody stupid she then said I was loud and aggressive and put the 'phone down. The label is so designed that reading it is difficult if you have poor eyesight!

Rowse “honey” is not real honey. It cannot be at the price point. Look at the bottle. All it says is a blend on non EU “honeys”. I challenge Rowse to reply to this post and confirm that they do not include so called honey from China (the largest producer in the world) because nearly all of Chinese honey is not real honey but sugar syrup. It is criminal that the use of the word “honey” is not regulated. You can use it to describe any sort of sweet rubbish. The British public is being scammed every time they buy Rowse honey.

Today I sent a message to Rowse via their web page.
My concern was, my brother bought me a jar of Rowse set honey yesterday, 18/9/25.
I have used Rowse for many years putting a 1/2 teaspoon into my cup of coffee. But my issue was, this jars sell by date was sept 24! Now, the reply I received was very unhelpful and Rowse promptly dismissed any onus on them.Stating it was ASDA’s fault.
I can appreciate that, ok, it’s not Rowse fault but, you would have thought it beneficial for Rowse to know that a supermarket is sell out of Date honey. Ok, yes I know, technically honey will not spoil. But hey, I’ve got a dodgy immune system due to cancer so I’m not taking any chances.
Now, to help answer some of the questions raised in the previous reviews regarding the quality of Rowse honey. I can verify that yes, Rowse set honey does in fact crystallise.
This out of date jar is 3/4 crystallised. How my brother didn’t see this when buying 🤯
I hope at least my bad experience has enlightened so to the quality of Rowse.
I’ll continue to buy but I think I’ll definitely not ask Brother again!

Worst selling idea on pure honey title
This is only sugar syrup

Its truly waste of money buying this honey.
They put it in a plastic bottle. The honey get so hard that you cant get it off from the bottle and because it's a plastic bottle, then you can't heat it.
Never again I shall buy any product from this compsny

Sugar syrup sold as "real honey" 🍯🍯🍯😢😢😢
I am shocked after tasting this honey, because I used it in my tea for some time, but today I decided to squeeze some straight to my mouth 😱 it is pure but definitely NOT honey 😰😰😰 pure SUGAR SYRUP this is!
I'm from Hungary, tasted enough real honeys in my lifetime. Even the consistency is different, way too runny. No honey taste whatsoever, but a very distinct sugar taste.
Horrified, how can they sell it as Real & Pure honey????

I bought some runny Rowse Honey yesterday from Morrisons, and it's definitely not Honey. There is a slight smell of honey, and I mean subtle. Only one out of four of us could smell it. The rest said it smelled like syrup, tasted like syrup, and dissolved instantly like syrup, Real honey doesn't instantly dissolve; you have to stir it. I'm going to ask Trading Standards to test it, to see if there is any honey at all in the bottle.

I would have given zero if possible.
Had reason to call Wallingford head office this morning and encountered the rudest and most unpleasant woman on reception. As a resultI will never buy any of this company's products again. They can keep their poor quality honey and cheap plastic bottles to themselves. The bottle I had is now in the bin.

I was a bit suspicious of Rowse.
Checked the website and it is total corporate gobbledegook that tells me nothing at all... pretty pictures of bees and flowers and lovely wholesome words like "yummy" etc. no real information at all. Origin? Purity? Single origin? Nope EU or not? No info. No information on the pot either.
Tastes like sugar.

Wanted a squeeze honey .much easier than pots. Tried Rowse and really impressed. Was concerned it was not 100% honey but reassured by Rowse that it is.

I bought Rowse organic honey and after 3 weeks it turns completely white and like frozen even you can’t use it anymore, it’s just sugar nothing else.
I am really disappointed because I’ve paid £6 each in waitrose and I just throw it.
Be careful if you want to buy an organic honey, Rowse is not the best.

I am writing to express my concern about the retail pricing of your honey products. Specifically, I have noticed that a 340g bottle of Rowse honey is priced at GBP 3, while a 680g bottle is priced at GBP 4. This pricing structure seems to disproportionately affect those with limited budgets, as the price difference for double the quantity is not proportional. While I understand that there may be packaging or production costs associated with different bottle sizes, I believe that a more equitable pricing model could be implemented. As a long-standing British company, I hope that you would consider the impact of your pricing on your fellow countrymen and strive to make your products more accessible to all.

It's hilarious to see the few clowns that were trying to defend Rowse by saying that this is real honey. Those reviews aged poorly.

Since then, there has been authenticity tests on all UK supermarket honey and they all failed because they get their honey imported from outside the UK, but more importantly, China.

China produces lots of fake honey as they use Sugar Syrup to make more profit. They're able to avoid purity tests in China and then they import to UK and we sell it in our Supermarkets.

Do you think Rowse isn't doing this? Read the label. A blend of Non-EU honeys. It comes straight from China. Just because Rowse has the ability to crystallize does NOT mean it doesn't contain Sugar Syrup. It does. Go buy some raw honey from your local beekeeper and compare it to this pile of crap. Rowse tastes like pure sweet syrup. There is no distinct flavour whatsoever.

Ignore any reviews you see trying to call Rowse real honey, as it has already been proved that they are using China's inauthentic syrup honey blend.

Its fake, and the customer service at Rowse will completely ignore you notifying them that the product you found in their "honey as pure and natural as the day Tony Rowse first collected honey from his Oxfordshire hives over 80 years ago" is made of sugar syrup, failed the tests for genuine honey and it turns out 'a blend of non EU honeys' - not even from UK let alone Oxfordshire then, and as a former beekeeper this stuff is like the bees have been fed sugar syrup who then make honey-like substance from it (you only do this to feed hungry bees for winter and your absolutely not meant to use it as honey, because its not honey, its basically thickened regurgitated sugar syrup. Falsely advertised, no 'deal' or 'cheap' sugar syrup should be called honey...and its not even that cheap. Rowse is just a brand now, claiming themselves as helping bees and beekeepers, but just selling for profit (annual revenue £134,000,000, owned by Valeo Foods/ Valeo Foods Jersey Limited that are owned by CapVest Ltd).
Research the brands you buy its mostly all fingers in pies dishing out poor products as cheaply as possible under a load of lies on how good it is for you.

Look at the label. If it states ‘blend of none EU honeys’ then it is highly likely to contain sugar syrup blended thousands of miles away, in Chinese factories .
Stop buying Chinese rubbish, imported from the other side of the world.
Buy from the British Isles.
Proper honey should state the source on the label - and at the very least the country of source - not some vague ‘blend of none EU honeys’ nonsense, rip off description

The worst honey I've ever tasted put it out in the bin as I just couldn't enjoy it at all and I love honey.

The Rowse Light & Mild honey was unbearably sweet and concentrated, its ruined my morning porridge.

Drastically sweeter than previous batches, and its contrary to whats advertised on the label.

Gonna switch to locally produced honey in light of my recent experience.

This is a good honey, I always buy organic one. Recently I’m not happy with the squeezing part of the cap. They changed it. Before It was controllable when squeezing, now when you squeeze it holding a little while then flush out more than you expected and create mess. I know this way consuming more but company doesn’t need that cheap clever design for more profit. I hope they will listen and correct it.

This is REAL honey. For all those reviews saying that honey doesn't crystallise, they are WRONG. Real honey does crystallise and it's one of the ways to tell that you've purchased real honey. In fact, I have several old jars of Rowse honey on the shelf that have crystallised!

Nobody wants chinese honey, sorry.

Do better.
