Beeswax has been a precious commodity with a high trade value since ancient times. It was also used as currency, and there are records from 16th-century Scotland of it being used to pay fines and rent! Keeping bees has for long been part of monastic life. The beeswax makes the candles that are part of the rituals of worship. At Pluscarden Abbey, in the quiet wooded valley in Moray in the north of Scotland, they make soothing Benets Balm from their own beeswax.
Beeswax creates a great natural protective barrier for the skin and lips. Just the job for cracked heels if you’re a runner or a hillwalker!
