How is Mānuka honey different to local honey?Updated a year ago
Mānuka honey is extremely different from regular/local honey as it has over 2,000 unique compounds, far more than any other nectar type. Many of these compounds are highly bioactive and unique to Mānuka (think MGO!). This is why we call it Honey With SuperpowersTM. What’s more, this rare honey is only produced in New Zealand from the native Mānuka flowers that flower just 2-6 weeks of the year!
One of the best things about Mānuka though is the thick creamy texture and delicious caramel taste.
Many of our customers choose to have both local honey (rather than the regular honey bear from the supermarket) and Mānuka honey in their households, as they serve different purposes. Read about the differences between local honey and Mānuka on our blog.
