Bee Wick Hemp is made from the highest quality American beeswax available and 100% pure, organic hemp. We use beeswax from CA, MO and HI honeybees, and our hemp wick is made on the Nevada side of Lake Tahoe. We are one of the only hemp wick companies that uses American beeswax; most other brands are either made in China or 'Europe', which both have little to no regulations to verify the authenticity of the beeswax. Most use a synthetic 'beeswax blend' that they will mix with other types of wax to cut costs. Our beeswax is 100% pure and of the highest quality; you will most certainly smell the difference!
