Beeswax Sugarbag didgeridoo

In short: Genuine Australian "sugarbag" beeswax, 100% authentic: the traditional material for didgeridoo mouthpieces. Sold in 13 g portions, enough for one mouthpiece, or two smaller ones.

Sugarbag: It is produced by the wild black bees of northern Australia, which do not sting because they have no sting. It is traditionally the material of choice for making mouthpieces and filling small cracks.

A blend of wax and propolis, it is much darker than the wax of our bees. Its lovely smell still reminds me of Australia…

A rare product: Sugarbag is harder and harder to obtain: my Australian producer takes only very small quantities and leaves most of it to the hive. It takes him almost 6 months to send me 500 g. This is about respecting the hive in its natural state, and it explains the price.

My advice: Naturally stickier than European beeswax, sugarbag can be mixed with natural yellow wax to get a better texture.
