I Tried Hallucinogenic Honey – The Most Dangerous and Expensive in the World

We traveled to Nepal and the Himalayas to meet Gurung honey hunters and witness them collect mad honey from giant bees on steep cliffs. We watched them use smoke, ropes, and bamboo poles to reach the hives, learning about the rhododendron flowers and the dangers of the harvest. We tasted the honey and learned that its grayanotoxin can cause dizziness when consumed in large amounts.
