This batch from New Zealand Honey Co. Limited (Sample ID: 3046K20) has been independently tested by Analytica Laboratories Ltd in New Zealand. It carries a UMF grade of 20.7 and an MGO reading of 878 mg/kg — MGO (methylglyoxal) is the compound that indicates manuka’s antibacterial potency, so a higher MGO means stronger antibacterial activity. The lab also found Leptosperin at 726 mg/kg; Leptosperin is a botanical marker used to confirm genuine manuka origin. The certificate does not list a DHA value here—DHA is the precursor that converts into MGO over time, so some labels include both numbers. With a UMF around 20 and MGO well above 500 mg/kg, this is a premium-strength manuka honey that many people choose for targeted uses where a higher antibacterial rating is desirable; it’s also a luxurious option for beauty and special-care applications. New Zealand Honey Co. Limited sources and presents this honey clearly, and the independent lab result gives added confidence in its quality and authenticity.
In short: UMF 20.7, MGO 878 mg/kg, Leptosperin 726 mg/kg — a high-strength, premium manuka honey, independently tested by Analytica Laboratories Ltd (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.
