What is Manuka Honey?
Manuka honey is the gold-standard of honey! It is made up of complex sugars, amino acids, phenolics and other substances that give it its medicinal properties. 

It is made from the Manuka Tree, a relative to the Tea Tree, that grows abundantly throughout New Zealand. When hives are placed in areas where these Manuka trees dominate the landscape, bees feed off the nectar. The result? Manuka Honey!

Tasting manuka honey is an exceptional experience! The taste of Manuka honey is described to be an earthy and nutty delicacy. Plus, the longer it ages, the better it tastes!
