Zea Manuka Honey is a potent and pure Manuka honey that is ethically harvested from the nectar of hives scattered throughout the pristine wilderness of Flinders Island, Tasmania, in the untouched Manuka bush.
It is monofloral manuka honey, meaning it is produced from bees collecting pollen almost entirely from a single variety of flower.
It is 100% raw, cold-extracted, and unfiltered. It boasts delicate floral undertones and a mouth-watering sweetness that makes it a great addition to breakfast and beyond.

Manuka honey is graded using two primary systems: MGO (Methylglyoxal) and UMF (Unique Manuka Factor), both of which measure the potency and quality of the honey.
MGO Grading
MGO grading focuses on the concentration of methylglyoxal in the honey.
UMF and MGO Categories
Both UMF and MGO grading systems help consumers choose the right honey based on potency and intended use.
UMF grading evaluates MGO levels alongside additional factors to ensure the authenticity, potency, freshness, and shelf life of the honey. The components assessed include:
Leptosperin: Ensures authenticity
DHA: Determines shelf life
HMF: Ensures freshness by verifying proper storage and heat exposure
This honey is third-party tested for MGO (methylglyoxal), DHA (dihydroxyacetone), and HMF (5-hydroxymethylfurfural)
