Honey from the Heart of the U Minh Forest
At the very southern tip of Vietnam, where the Mekong Delta meets the sea, the U Minh forest spreads across a vast wetland of melaleuca trees and dark peat water. For generations, people here have lived alongside the forest, and the region’s traditional rafter beekeeping, which uses wooden beams to attract wild bee colonies, has been recognized as part of Vietnam’s national intangible cultural heritage.
When the melaleuca trees bloom, the forest hums with bees. The honey they make is as bold as its surroundings: dark, intensely aromatic and finished with a slightly herbal bitterness found nowhere else in the country.
