Let's talk about MGO! The magic number (grade) tells you how bioactive the honey is. The higher the number, the stronger its antibacterial power.

  • 261+ MGO: This is like medium-strength level honey. It's great if you're starting to try Mānuka honey and want a healthy sweetener that still offers fantastic antibacterial properties.

  • 512+ MGO: This is the gold standard, strong-level honey. It's much more potent, perfect if you want extra health benefits with more powerful and effective non-peroxide antibacterial activity. Think of it as a wellness superhero .

Methylglyoxal (MGO) is the distinctive naturally occurring antibacterial compound in Mānuka honey. A higher MGO value indicates increased antibacterial activity and higher levels of other actives like DHA (Dihydroxyacetone), HMF (Hydroxymethylfurfural), and Leptosperin, beneficial compounds in Mānuka honey . In simple terms, the higher the MGO grade , the more potent the honey is.

This misconception has been spread over the years, but the truth is that honey crystallization is normal. In fact, genuine raw honey will crystallize due to glucose; bits of pollen in raw honey provide an excellent substrate to encourage crystallization.

Our Mānuka honey varies naturally, but we make sure it has a creamy texture through an old-fashioned process; it's all about creaming. We add some finely crystallized honey, called "seed honey," to liquid honey. Then, we stir it gently to make fine crystals throughout the honey, giving it that creamy feel. We don't use heat in this process. We keep our organic honey under 95ºF to keep all the good stuff in it, like its healthy properties.

Mānuka honey is more than a natural sweetener. It contains powerful nutrients and compounds that support your immune system and help heal your gut. It fights off viruses, reduces inflammation, and protects your body from damage caused by harmful substances called oxidants. Additionally, it is used to heal wounds, soothe sore throats, prevent tooth decay, and improve digestion . So, when you eat Mānuka honey, you're boosting your body to stay strong, healthy, and happy.

While local honey is just okay. If you want to give your body the best, Mānuka honey stands out because of its non-peroxide antibacterial activity, quality, and exclusive origin (New Zealand) . Also, its bioactive compounds— MGO, DHA, HMF, and Leptosperin —create a potent elixir exceptional for fighting germs, reducing swelling, and maintaining health. These antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and prebiotic properties are unique to Mānuka honey variety.

There are many ways to enjoy it: you can eat it straight from the jar or drizzle it on açaí bowls, coffee, tea, smoothies, yogurt, pancakes, or dressings. Stir it into drinks for natural sweetness, apply it to wounds for healing, take a spoonful daily (1-3 spoonfuls are recommended for optimal health benefits) , have a spoonful with good-quality salt before exercise ( for carbs and electrolytes ), or mix it with turmeric for a skin-friendly face mask.

We harvest our Mānuka honey directly from Moeawatea, Taranaki, New Zealand. Our Mānuka honey is 100% organic , certified by ‘BioGro NZ Ltd,’ and internationally recognized as equivalent to USDA organic certification . This ensures that our honey meets the highest organic production standards. Each batch is meticulously crafted without synthetic pesticides or herbicides (including glyphosate), guaranteeing pure, natural goodness in every jar. Additionally, it is independently tested for MGO grades, DHA, HMF, and Leptosperin compounds. Each jar is part of a batch that has been tested, and the lab report is available for all our customers; please kindly ask for it via customer success with your order number. Rest assured, our Mānuka honey is genuine! We have the real deal, honey 🤝.

As much as we want to reduce our prices, doing so would leave us without margins for growth. Behind every product shipped, there is a whole team (a family) that brings all the experience to life, along with operational costs, marketing, packaging, salaries, warehousing, and more . We know our value very well; premium products are exclusive. We don’t aim to be cheap because we want to give you elite quality. Health is wealth and vice-versa 🔁 we still will love you, even if a couple of bucks separates us from each other 💔.

Delicious and nutrition honey!

This is by far the best tasting honey i've ever had.

Delicious AND beneficial

When I learned there were different type of bees leading to different type of honey I was blown away. I came across rare beehive and saw how unique the honey was and how many benefits it has vs other honey you’d normally buy in the stores. I use honey to sweeten my morning coffee, as well as for snacks such as a peanut butter and honey sandwich, oats and honey, and others. This rare beehive honey not only serves as a sweetener but also almost like a health supplement. I highly recommend it.

Delicious & Flu Relief

Not a fan of honey, but this has a delicious taste. The 512 helps me a lot with my flu. I enjoy my teas with ginger, lemon, and Manuka honey. The 261 is my new daily morning ritual.

TASTEFUL, HEALTHY 🍯

The rare beehive honey has been a great addition to my morning Greek yogurt bowls. It was so good that I am already almost out of my “bee ginner” kit with only having it for about a month. The taste is great and is a natural way to sweeten your coffee, bowls, smoothies etc…

Amazing taste

I love this honey. It’s so perfect in my morning coffee, on top of yogurt, in my tea, and by the spoonful when I have a sore throat. I love the brand and what it stands for too. 10/10, will be getting again :)
