Region where your Mānuka Honey was sourced:
New Zealand Honey Co. Limited’s batch (Sample ID 1101124) was independently tested by Hill Labs in New Zealand. The UMF grade of 10.7 is a recognised measure of manuka quality and activity, and the Methylglyoxal (MGO) result of 292 mg/kg indicates the level of naturally occurring antibacterial activity you can expect from this honey. Leptosperin, measured at 410 mg/kg, is a botanical marker used to confirm genuine manuka origin. DHA, the natural precursor that converts into MGO, was not listed on this certificate. With an MGO below 500, this honey is especially well suited to everyday uses — think drizzling over breakfast, stirring into drinks, baking, and gentle skincare routines — where flavour and consistent natural activity matter. Hill Labs’ independent testing gives you confidence in the reported figures, and New Zealand Honey Co. Limited’s careful sourcing and testing mean you’re buying a reliably genuine product.
In short: UMF 10.7, MGO 292 mg/kg, Leptosperin 410 mg/kg — a genuine, everyday manuka ideal for food, daily wellness and skincare.

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.
