A family jar, made honest again.
Velvet Gourmet started with a simple frustration: honey that pours from a squeeze bottle but barely tastes of anything. We went looking for the real thing — honey the way it exists in the hills of Kashmir, the orchards of Bengal, and the wild forests that still have room for bees to work undisturbed.
Pradhan's is what came of that search — a small, family-run collection of raw, cold-processed honeys. Nothing is heated past what the bees intended, so the enzymes, pollen and character of each source stay intact. Every varietal is bottled and labelled by hand, in small batches, under one name we're happy to put ours behind.
— The Pradhan family, Thane
Sourced by region
Each varietal is drawn from a specific place and bloom — Kashmir's meadows, Bengal's wildflowers, deep forest hives, neem, litchi, turmeric and ginger.
Cold-processed, not heated
We process below temperatures that damage natural enzymes, so the honey keeps its raw character instead of being cooked into uniformity.
Hand-labelled, small batch
Every jar is filled, labelled and checked by hand — not run through a mass bottling line.
