This certificate covers batch D057L24 from New Zealand Honey Co. Limited, independently tested by Hill Labs in New Zealand. The honey carries a UMF grade of 24.3 — a high UMF indicating strong overall bioactive potency as recognised in manuka grading. Methylglyoxal (MGO) is reported at 1,149 mg/kg; MGO is the compound most associated with manuka’s antibacterial strength, so a level above 500 mg/kg places this jar among the higher‑strength manuka honeys. Leptosperin is 850 mg/kg, which is the botanical marker used to confirm genuine manuka origin and floral authenticity. DHA, the natural precursor that converts to MGO during honey maturation, is not listed on this certificate. Given these results, this honey is well suited to uses where higher antibacterial potency is desired — think concentrated wellness routines, immune‑supporting supplements, and richer skincare or beauty formulations — while remaining a beautifully robust table honey for lovers of intense flavour. New Zealand Honey Co. Limited has delivered a clearly authenticated, high‑potency manuka product backed by Hill Labs testing.
In short: UMF 24.3 with MGO 1,149 mg/kg and leptosperin 850 mg/kg — a high‑strength, genuine manuka ideal for stronger antibacterial applications and premium skincare or concentrated wellness use.
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.
