The French lab analyzed the elvish honey confirming it to be seven-year-old, high-quality and rich in minerals.

The first kilogram of the elvish honey was sold for $62,000 at the French stock exchange in 2009. A year later, pharmacists from China bought another kilogram at $38,000.

Currently priced at $6,800 a kilogram, it is sold in bottles of 170g and 250g.
