Pure New Zealand Manuka Honey

1 lb. (16 ounces) of pure Manuka honey from New Zealand.

Manuka Honey MGO 83+ is produced in New Zealand by bees that pollinate the Manuka bush Leptospermum scoparium. Manuka honey is coveted for its naturally occurring levels of the organic compound methylglyoxal, often abbreviated as MGO. This highly viscous unpasteurized raw honey is light to dark amber in color, carries a characteristic strong honey aroma, and holds a bittersweet flavor profile. This variety of honey contains a minimum of 83mg of MGO per kilogram as noted by the name. Manuka honey is procured for various benefits in personal-care, supplement, and cosmetic applications along with the culinary industry. It is used as a flavoring agent and sweetener in tea, hot and cold cereals, smoothies, yogurts, candy, and lozenges. In skincare formulations, it acts as a soothing element in facial masks, hair masks, moisturizers, balms, and body creams. In many households, manuka honey is a preferred ingredient for home remedies. Please note manuka honey may crystalize and can be warmed and mixed by running under a warm bath to create a homogeneous solution.
