Collection: Hot Honey

Hot honey is one of the fastest-growing condiments in the country — and once you try it, you'll understand why. The combination of real honey sweetness and genuine chile pepper heat is addictive in a way that plain hot sauce never quite achieves. At Nate's Nectar, our hot honey starts where most brands cut corners: with raw, unprocessed honey. No artificial flavors. Just real honey and real heat.

Three Heat Levels. One Great Base.

Our hot honey collection gives you three distinct options depending on how much heat you can handle:

Smoked Honey is our mildest variety, infused with chipotle peppers for a warm, smoky sweetness with a gentle kick. This is the one to start with if you're new to hot honey — complex flavor, approachable heat.

Buzzin' Hot Honey steps it up with a medium heat that builds as you eat. Chipotle-forward with more intensity than Smoked, it's the everyday hot honey for pizza nights, cheese boards, and glazed chicken.

Stingin' Hot Honey is made with ghost peppers for a serious, slow-building heat that spice lovers will appreciate. Not for the faint of heart — but the raw honey base keeps the flavor front and center, even at full heat.

Not sure which to try first? Our Hot Honey Flight includes all three so you can find your heat level before committing to a full bottle.

What to Put Hot Honey On

Hot honey belongs on more than just pizza — though it is exceptional on pizza. Drizzle it over crispy fried chicken or wings for a sweet-heat glaze. Add it to a cheese board alongside sharp cheddar or goat cheese. Stir it into a cocktail or hot toddy for a spicy twist. Use it as a glaze on grilled salmon, pork tenderloin, or roasted vegetables. Drizzle it over vanilla ice cream if you're feeling adventurous.

Made in DeGraff, Ohio

Every bottle of Nate's Nectar hot honey is made with raw honey. Small-batch, real ingredients, family-made.
