Description:

New Zealand Manuka Honey 12+ 1kg: Manuka is the Native New Zealand Maori name for the leptospermum scoparium tree. Australian by Nature sources Manuka Honey from our own apiaries in far north New Zealand. This honey is produced by honeybees and collected from beehives located in high density, organic and pollution free Manuka Forests. New Zealand Manuka Honey is the purest source of Manuka Honey in the world. Reason being, the forests are predominately covered with a single species of Manuka, therefore minimising contamination from other species of plants.

Harvesting & Production

Once the Manuka is collected from the beehives it is filtered and bottled to ensure retention of its natural properties. Fresh Manuka is packed in one of New Zealand’s most highly accredited facilities where it is labelled in compliance with standards implemented by the New Zealand Ministry for Primary Industries (MPI). Manuka Honey is extremely stable, not affected by light, heat nor dilution making it very effective in many applications. Australian by Nature New Zealand Manuka Honey is 100% natural with no additives.
