Fortnum & Mason has partnered with Disney to create the world's first official Winnie the Pooh honey, marking the character's 100th anniversary. The '100 Aker Wood Hunny' is produced using honey from bees in Ashdown Forest, East Sussex, the real-life inspiration for the Hundred Acre Wood. The honey is available in Spring and Summer varieties, each with distinct flavours, priced at £12.95 per jar.
Centenary Celebration
2026 marks 100 years since the publication of A.A. Milne's original Winnie the Pooh book. Fortnum & Mason's collaboration includes a limited-edition collection featuring honey, biscuits, truffles, homeware, and a bespoke cuddly toy. The honey is harvested using a sustainable, slow beekeeping process, with hives placed in Friends Field within Ashdown Forest.
Product Details
The Spring honey offers floral notes of bluebell, hawthorn, and gorse, while the Summer honey has lime blossom and menthol undertones. A special creamed Spring honey in a ceramic pot is available for £50. The collection also includes Winnie the Pooh and Friends Iced Biscuits (£32.95), a Winnie the Pooh & Piglet's Hunny Truffle Selection (£48), a honey pot-shaped hamper (£170), a mug (£24.95), and a limited-edition tea towel (£15.95).
