Beekeeper Yahya bin Tayran said Baha honey was one of the finest, especially if its source was far from where people lived BAHA: Honey sales at a festival in Baha have exceeded 1 ton in 10 days, the Saudi Press Agency reported, with a large number of visitors flocking to the event. The 13th International Honey Festival aims to help beekeepers promote their products in a professional arena while also making the event a lucrative one for them. Honey prices at the festival range between SR300 ($80) and SR1,200 per kilo. It has a display of different types of liquid honey and honey wax typical of the Baha region. They include ziziphus spina-christi honey, acacia honey, lavender honey, alfalfa honey, and white honey. Beekeeper Yahya bin Tayran said Baha honey was one of the finest, especially if its source was far from where people lived. “Bees have a great ability to fly in search of nectar. There are different types of honey but people prefer the ziziphus spina-christi honey thanks to the sweetness of its taste and the white honey, which is one of the finest types of honey and is served on important occasions. It is characterized by its distinctive white color and scarcity, where it is extracted from some rare trees that bloom once a year in specific regions such as Tihama in Asir and Baha.”
