Why Aristaeus Is The Inspiration Behind Aristaeus & Company

In the realm of Greek mythology, Aristaeus stands as a figure of ingenuity and patron of rustic skills. Known as the son of Apollo and Cyrene, Aristaeus was a deity whose expertise spanned across various rural arts and crafts, from beekeeping to cheese making, to olive cultivation, and, even, healing. His name, derived from the Greek 'aristos', meaning 'the best', encapsulates his mastery and excellence in each of these areas.

It is this fascinating and multifaceted character and his desire to immerse himself and work with nature that inspired us to brand our all-natural skincare range, Aristaeus & Company.

The choice of Aristaeus as a namesake fits us as a brand as we seek to understand and embody the best of nature's offerings. Our goal is to create products that harness nature's enduring wellness benefits, using ingredients renowned for their positive effects.

"and Company" signals that we are not in this alone and we want you to join us on this journey.

As a protector and cultivator of vital resources, such as honey, Aristaeus echoes our desire for sustainability and natural purity. Our skincare products, which include items such as our All Natural Beekeeper's Soap and Honey & Beeswax Moisture Cream, are a modern-day tribute to the ancient arts that Aristaeus symbolises.

Aristaeus & Company is more than just a nod to mythology. It is a statement of doing our best for and with nature, a promise of natural wellness, and a celebration of the timeless crafts that have nurtured humanity through generations. The spirit of Aristaeus, 'the best', continually reminds us that each product is a testament to that enduring legacy.
