Region where your Mānuka Honey was sourced:
This batch from New Zealand Honey Co. Limited (Sample ID MM281/23C) carries a UMF grade of 24 and an MGO level of 1120 mg/kg, independently tested by Analytica Laboratories Ltd in New Zealand. UMF 24 denotes a high-grade manuka profile, and the MGO figure indicates the honey’s strong antibacterial activity compared with lower-MGO varieties. Leptosperin is reported at 964 mg/kg — a botanical marker that supports the honey’s genuine manuka origin. You may also see DHA mentioned on some reports; DHA (dihydroxyacetone) is the nectar compound that converts into MGO during storage and helps explain how MGO levels develop over time. With an MGO of 1120 mg/kg, this honey is especially well suited to uses that benefit from higher antibacterial potency — think targeted gut support, immunity-focused routines, beauty and skin-care formulations, or where a robust manuka profile is desired. New Zealand Honey Co. Limited is delivering a premium, well-documented product backed by a respected independent lab.
In short: UMF 24 and MGO 1120 (Leptosperin 964 mg/kg), tested by Analytica Laboratories Ltd, New Zealand — a high-strength manuka ideal for applications that favour stronger antibacterial activity.

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.
