Manuka Honey

Scientific research confirms the extraordinary antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties of genuine Manuka honey. What distinguishes New Zealand Manuka honey is its unparalleled composition, comprising over 200 compounds absent in other honey varieties. This unique blend of compounds contributes to the exceptional qualities and benefits of New Zealand Manuka honey.

 

Our Monofloral Manuka Honey powder and lozenge stock is carefully produced with a UMF5+ or Methylglyoxal level 83 mg/kg, ensuring superior taste and pollen count. We also offer customized manufacturing options for different levels upon request.


Honeydew 

New Zealand Beech tree honeydew is a delightful liquid honey, perfect for the table. It seldom crystallizes due to its low glucose and fructose content, and instead contains complex sugars like maltose, erlose, and melezitose. This rich, dark red/brown honey offers a malty flavour.


Rewarewa Honey

Rewarewa (Knightia excelsa) is a New Zealand honeysuckle tree, producing delicious honey with healing properties. As the tallest member of the Protea family, Rewarewa is known for its striking flowers. Its honey boasts high peroxide activity for healing and antibacterial effects. Additionally, Rewarewa Honey is rich in antioxidants, combating free radicals and possessing potent anti-inflammatory properties.

 


Kamahi Honey

Bees gather Kamahi honey from the beautiful white flowers of the Kāmahi tree, a widespread tree found throughout New Zealand. This tree, reaching heights of up to 25 meters, often starts as an epiphyte on the branches of other species, including tree ferns.

 


Rata honey

Rata honey is a delightful treat for the taste buds, offering a unique and memorable flavor. It strikes a perfect balance between mildness and richness, without being excessively sweet. This light-colored honey is sourced from the vibrant and intense red flowers of the towering native New Zealand Rata tree.

Seasonality and Supply of honey
 

Honey availability and supply in New Zealand are not limited by seasonality. Thanks to long-term production planning, we ensure a consistent and continuous supply of honey, even in large volumes. We have established relationships with trusted suppliers across both the North and South Islands of New Zealand, enabling us to access honey from various sources. Customers are welcome to send us their honey from registered Beekeepers to process and contract manufacture into honey powder, crystals  and related products.
