This batch (Sample ID 4150125) from New Zealand Honey Co. Limited has been independently tested by Hill Labs in New Zealand and carries a UMF grade of 15.6. UMF is an established grading system that reflects the honey’s unique, non-peroxide activity and overall quality, while MGO (methylglyoxal) — measured here at 550 mg/kg — is the compound most responsible for manuka’s distinctive antibacterial rating. DHA (dihydroxyacetone) is the natural precursor that converts to MGO in manuka honey, and although this certificate does not list a DHA value, the lab’s MGO result is the practical measure of potency. The leptosperin result of 500 mg/kg is a strong botanical marker confirming genuine manuka origin. With an MGO above 500, this honey sits at a higher-strength level that shoppers often prefer for targeted wellness routines, beauty and skincare applications, or when a robust antibacterial rating is desired in the product. New Zealand Honey Co. Limited reliably sources and labels its honey, and this independently certified sheet from Hill Labs supports that quality.

In short: UMF 15.6, MGO 550 mg/kg, Leptosperin 500 mg/kg — a high-strength, genuinely sourced manuka honey from New Zealand Honey Co., independently tested by Hill Labs (NZ).
