What is the secret of New Zealand’s liquid gold?
At first glance, honey from Manuka flowers is no different from conventional flower honey. The secret lies in the ingredients.
The honey contains leptospermone and the strong antibacterial methylglyoxal (MGO). Compared to conventional flower honey, the MGO- content is up to 100- times higher.
No other honey has been as thoroughly researched as Manuka Honey. The valuable ingredients make it a popular part of the family medicine cabinet. It is thought to have special effects in the treatment of infections and colds.
How is the special honey used?
Strong and spicy, our honey can be enjoyed pure or as a sweetener.
We recommend letting the honey slowly dissolve in your mouth using a teaspoon. For throat and pharyngeal problems, we recommend 2-3 teaspoons per day.
If you add honey to a hot drink, allow it to cool down to lukewarm first. Temperatures above 40 degrees Celsius can damage enzymes in the honey.
Manuka-Plant bloom only a few weeks a year. Accordingly, the harvest of the precious honey is small. The low availability increasingly leads to counterfeiting.
Our honey is certified by bees that pollinated Manuka blossoms from the Waikura Valley. Worldwide, Manuka honey is classified based on the concentration of MGO in mg/kg, or by the so-called UMF values.. The "Unique Manuka Factor" is based on the special chemical composition of Manuka honey. We have our Manuka honey tested for its ingredients by an accredited laboratory during every production run.
