You can keep bees even in Soho. On the roof garden at the Ham Yard Hotel in Soho are two bee hives which are tended to by the hotel’s dedicated bee keeper, Camilla. She employs eco friendly methods for bee management and hive maintenance. Bee friendly plants have also been established around the hives.
Their first batch of honey was produced in August 2015 and is used by the bar staff in the cocktail menu. As Camilla explains, local honey has a wonderful complex flavour as it has not been blended or subjected to high temperatures so all the aromas of the local flowers are preserved and the health giving elements are untouched.
