This research delves into the unique characteristics of Acacia honey sourced from the Middle Himalayan Range (Jammu, Lahaul, Chamba, and Kangra). Employing a comprehensive analysis, we examined the physical properties and antioxidant potential of this distinct honey variety. The results indicate the dominance of Acacia species, as reflected in the physical profile in terms of specific gravity (1.36), pH (3.67), and moisture content (18.69%). These values align with established quality standards. Furthermore, the honey exhibits significant antioxidant activity, as evidenced by its FRAP, ABTS assay and radical scavenging potential. Insights from this exploration contribute to a deeper understanding of Middle Himalayan Range Acacia honey, offering valuable information for consumers, researchers, and the apiculture industry

Acacia honey, Middle Himalayan Range, physical properties, antioxidant capacities

This study comprehensively analysed unifloral honey from Beehive Natural Honey Farm, Kangra, Himachal Pradesh, to evaluate its nutritional quality and storage characteristics. The findings revealed that all honey samples exhibited high-quality attributes, favourable storage capacity, and significant antioxidant potential, underscoring their medicinal value. The studies positioned the honey as a potent source of natural remedies with enhanced value in the market
