Certified by a leading lab in Germany, this launch sets a new standard in honey authenticity and transparency, reinforcing the brand’s commitment to providing the highest quality products for Indian homes. The honey undergoes stringent testing across 36 quality parameters, ensuring it meets FSSAI standards, free from added sugars, antibiotics, or microbial contamination. With its unmatched purity and natural richness in antioxidants and phytonutrients, Country Delight’s NMR-tested honey is poised to become a staple in kitchens nationwide.
The Science Behind NMR Testing
A Gold Standard in Honey Purity
Adulteration in honey, often with high-fructose corn syrup or rice syrup, is a widespread concern in the industry. NMR spectroscopy, a cutting-edge technique, addresses this issue by analyzing honey’s chemical profile to detect even trace amounts of extraneous sugars or synthetic additives. The European Commission and the EU Reference Laboratory for Honey endorse NMR as a reliable method for ensuring honey authenticity. This technique generates a unique “fingerprint” of honey’s natural components, comparing suspicious batches against an established database of authentic samples.
Why NMR-Tested Honey Matters
A Commitment to Health and Transparency
Mr. Chakradhar Gade, CEO and Co-founder of Country Delight, expressed his enthusiasm for the launch:
We are thrilled to introduce NMR-tested honey, setting a new benchmark in transparency and quality. Every batch of our Farm Honey is tested and the quality report is available on the Country Delight app. Our mission is simple—deliver pure and superior products that make India live better. Honey, a natural alternative to refined sugar, offers a host of functional benefits. Its bioactive compounds, such as flavonoids and phenolic acids, contribute to improved metabolic health and long-term wellness. Studies have also shown that honey may lower fasting blood sugar levels and increase good cholesterol, making it an excellent addition to a balanced diet.

Beyond Sweetness
Unlike refined sugar, which offers only empty calories, honey’s nutrient composition provides modest but cumulative health advantages. A 2022 meta-analysis of 18 clinical trials found that honey could:
- Lower fasting blood sugar levels.
- Increase C-peptide levels, aiding insulin secretion and blood sugar stability.
- Support heart health by improving cholesterol profiles.
