Which honey rating is best for me?

As the price tag suggests, not all Manuka honey is equal.

The UMF™ Four Factor Quality Assurance Test independently certifies the quality factors that matter and summarises them in a single figure. It validates Potency, Authenticity, Freshness, and Purity of honest mānuka honey and verifies the genuine UMF™ rating of each batch.

No other honey undergoes such rigorous testing by a bee-keeper’s country mile.

The best option balances your health goals and budget, and if you're unsure, we're here to help guide you through your Manuka Honey journey!
