Region where your Mānuka Honey was sourced:
This Mānuka honey, from UMF Licensee New Zealand Honey Co. Ltd and independently tested by Analytica Laboratories Ltd in New Zealand (Sample ID 20201), carries a UMF grade of 20.6 — a measure that reflects the unique Mānuka markers used to assess quality and overall potency. The lab report shows MGO (methylglyoxal) at 869 mg/kg, an established indicator of the honey’s antibacterial activity, and Leptosperin at 881 mg/kg, a botanical marker that helps verify genuine Mānuka origin. DHA, the natural precursor that converts into MGO as honey matures, is not listed on this certificate. With an MGO well above 500 mg/kg, this is a higher-strength Mānuka suited to uses where stronger antibacterial properties are often preferred, such as gut-supportive routines, immunity-focused choices, beauty and skincare, and topical wound-care applications; it also makes a luxurious addition to cooking and daily wellness for those who favour higher-potency honey. New Zealand Honey Co. Ltd’s UMF grading and Analytica’s independent testing give clear, trusted confirmation of this product’s quality.
In short: A high-strength UMF 20.6 Mānuka (MGO 869 mg/kg) — genuine, potent, and independently tested in New Zealand.
This certification confirms the authenticity and quality of your Mānuka honey purchase.

Mānuka Honey FAQ
Why is this honey so expensive?
It’s harvested in remote areas of New Zealand and undergoes rigorous independent testing for quality, purity, and potency — all of which adds cost. Rarity and global demand also play a role.
The colour of my honey looks different. Why?
Colour can vary naturally by batch and region. It doesn’t indicate strength or efficacy; a high-MGO honey can be light, and a lower-MGO honey can be dark and visa-versa.
My honey is too hard/runny. What’s wrong?
Temperature affects viscosity. To soften, leave it somewhere warm. To firm, chill in the fridge briefly.
This Mānuka Honey tastes bitter — is it off?
High-grade Mānuka can taste bold or slightly bitter due to potent bioactive compounds. Honey doesn’t spoil in the usual sense; gentle warming can reverse crystallisation.
How is Mānuka honey different from regular honey?
Mānuka contains higher levels of methylglyoxal (MGO) and carries a UMF™ rating based on independent lab tests of key markers.
New Zealand Honey Co. is committed to complete transparency. Sourced from hives across New Zealand’s rugged, untouched landscapes, the honey is UMF™ certified, fully traceable back to the hive, and free from GMOs, glyphosate residue, antibiotics, or additives.
The company follows a simple principle: nature is best preserved in its purest form.
