New for 2026, this is our first new offering in the 15 years since Surya Reserve sun-potentised shilajit was created, and 28 years since I first encountered shilajit in the Himalayas.
In Ayurveda, shilajit has traditionally been taken with honey. Honey is regarded as a yogavahi, a carrier that is paired with other substances. Many shilajit-and-honey products use processed or anonymous honey. We wanted the honey to be as exceptional as the shilajit, and we found it on our doorstep in the Portuguese wilderness.
The beekeeper
My neighbour is a master beekeeper. She is in her eighties, one of the most loving and generous people I know, and the bees are her life. When she occasionally brings honey to the local market, a queue forms immediately. It’s the finest honey I’ve ever tasted, and I include Manuka at MGO 1500+.
The honey
It is raw, wild multiflora honey from a pristine region where summer temperatures can reach 46°C (115°F). Her bees forage on almond and orange blossom, rockrose, rosemary, broom, lavender, echium, poppy, borage, chestnut, blackberry, thyme and cork oak. Many of these plants have long been valued in traditional herbal practice. It is a terroir you can see underfoot: black tourmaline, quartz and occasionally beryl lie on the open ground.
Size and dose
Each jar holds 140g. That is 28 days at a 5g daily serving (about one heaped teaspoon), one full lunar cycle. Many people stretch it further.
Three strengths, by shilajit per 5g serving
Option 1: 1gm per day. Full strength, and the most popular choice
Option 2: 0.5gm per day. A mid-range daily amount
Option 3: 0.2gm per day. For those already on a lower-dose routine. For 0.1gm per day, take a half serving (2.5g).
Limited supply, available while stock lasts.
