SOURCE

Our Wild Mānuka Honey UMF 15+ is produced by bees collecting nectar from the native Mānuka plant, a scrubby tree that is abundant across New Zealand and is well known for its medicinal antibacterial qualities. These unique properties have led Wild Mānuka Honey UMF 15+ to be one of the most researched honeys in the world. The small white flowers of the Mānuka tree bloom during spring and summer in New Zealand and this is the time of year when the bees collect the nectar and produce the honey.

TASTE

New Zealand Honey Co. Wild Mānuka Honey UMF 15+ is a complex honey with a herbaceous flavour that has undertones of caramel, with a clean fresh finish and a moderately bitter taste. This honey has a very smooth, pleasant texture; thick, almost chewy and fudge-like in consistency. The honey can range from being a dark cream in colour to a dark brown, and anything in between.
