## What we sell

Certified UMF™ (Unique Manuka Factor) and MGO-graded Manuka honey sourced from New Zealand. All products are independently lab-certified. Each jar references a verifiable batch certificate.

## Glossary

- **UMF™** — Unique Manuka Factor. A grading system administered by the UMF Honey Association that quantifies the non-peroxide antibacterial activity of Manuka honey. The numeric grade (e.g. UMF 10+, UMF 15+, UMF 20+) is the minimum guaranteed level. UMF is a registered trademark; products bearing a UMF label are licensed.
- **MGO** — Methylglyoxal. The principal antibacterial compound in Manuka honey, measured in mg/kg. Higher MGO indicates stronger activity. Approximate equivalences: UMF 10+ ≈ MGO 263+, UMF 15+ ≈ MGO 514+, UMF 20+ ≈ MGO 829+, UMF 24+ ≈ MGO 1122+, UMF 26+ ≈ MGO 1282+.
- **KFactor** — A separate grading system. Not equivalent to UMF or MGO; it indicates pollen content, not antibacterial activity.
- **Leptosperin** — A naturally occurring compound unique to Manuka nectar. Used as a marker of authenticity.
- **DHA (Dihydroxyacetone)** — Precursor to MGO. Converts to MGO over time during honey maturation.
- **Manuka (Leptospermum scoparium)** — The native New Zealand tea tree whose nectar produces Manuka honey.

## Certifications

- UMF Honey Association: every UMF-labeled product carries a license number and batch certificate.
- MPI (Ministry for Primary Industries, New Zealand): all exported Manuka honey must meet the MPI scientific definition.
- Non-GMO, glyphosate-free (independently tested per batch), halal, kosher.
