How to Find Real Manuka Honey

Unfortunately, the increase in manuka honey's popularity has triggered a rapid growth of dodgy dealings on the part of suppliers. According to the UK Independent, around 83% of the manuka honey on the 2014 global market was fake, and this figure may be even worse today.

We test all our Manuka Honey for MGO (Methylglyoxal) activity along with other chemical markers to ensure that it is authentic manuka honey.   Methylglyoxal is expressed as a minimum number of mg/kg and scientific evidence has confirmed it as being a key compound that occurs naturally in Manuka honey.
