## Overview

Wedderspoon Raw Premium Manuka Honey delivers 150+ MGO strength in a 17.6 oz jar of unpasteurized, non-GMO honey sourced exclusively from New Zealand’s wild Manuka blossoms.

Packaged in BPA-free containers, it guarantees purity and traceability from hive to home.

## Description

A golden superfood, straight from New Zealand, Manuka Honey is one of nature’s most complex creations. Manuka honey is made exclusively by bees who consume the nectar of Manuka blossoms, a plant whose properties are what make Manuka honey so special. Wedderspoon believes that Mother Nature knows best, which is why we don’t process, age, heat, or manipulate our KFactor honey. We allow our bees to roam freely through remote terrain on New Zealand's South Island and feast on wild Manuka blossoms, then we cream our honey fresh so it tastes like Manuka should. The result is Manuka honey brimming with a unique and creamy taste and full of living enzymes and antioxidants to empower your daily wellness.

Review: Manuka magick! - This is an excellent quality Manuka Honey product. There is a bit of confusion over the UMF, MGO and OMA rating thing. UMF is the original and trademarked. MGO is a newer rating system that does not directly correlate to UMF but is accurate nonetheless. OMA is Wedderspoon's own rating system for determining activity within the raw honey. From my reading it appears to be pretty equitable to UMF. This honey is also USDA Organic certified (although that doesn't mean as much these days) to ensure that there are no additive ingredients to the product. As for usage, I have two jars of this honey. I used the first on my wife's wounds following MOHS surgery for removal of skin cancer. The results were amazing and the surgeon and plastic surgeon both asked what we were using to allow the wounds to heal up so quickly with minimal scarring. There was also a staph infection as a result of the surgery that the honey took care of as well. It takes a bit of diligence to ensure daily dressing changes with fresh honey, but the results pay off. I ended up pre-soaking gauze with the honey and sandwiching between two layers of plastic wrap to create more manageable "bandages". These were used by my wife when she traveled in addition to direct application to the cleaned wound bed. Basic process: Clean wound with Hydrogen Peroxide, follow with colloidal silver in nebulizer, then drizzle honey into wound and cover wound with pre-soaked gauze pad. The last bit is to cover the pre-soaked pad with a waterproof dressing like a Telfa-style pad to reduce oozing onto clothing/bedding. Care must be taken in finding adhesives that do not irritate the skin too much with the frequent dressing changes. There are also larger waterproof wound dressings with silver-impregnated that might be a good combination. Main idea is to minimize air-space and keep honey in constant contact with wound bed. If this all sounds new, do some research on honey for wound care at the University of Waikato in New Zealand courtesy of Dr. Peter Molan. Note, this honey is not "sterilized" via gamma radiation (which is not supposed to reduce activity in the honey like pasteurization) but is still highly effective. Honey is resistant to most any spoilage due to its activity and the sterilization process is just an extra step some honey manufacturer's take (Comvita or Summerglow) to be able to sell their products as medical devices in the US. It will allow the honey to be FDA-approved. Again, as I understand this is not a requirement but is done largely to gain approval for medical usage in hospitals and clinics. Check out Medihoney dressings. BTW, I have also used this topically on oral canker sores with great effect! Sores dissappeared in days and not weeks! Applied directly 3 x day. Lastly, the other jar I use for tea and even coffee and it is delicious. It has a strong floral taste and finish (as would be expected) and is alittle more viscous than other Manuka honeys I have tried. I have tried nearly all Manuka honey brands from NZ as I visit often and find this to be a great option for those of us who need a high-quality active raw Manuka honey without paying a load for shipping up the stuff from down under. Or you can just ask a friend heading that way to bring you back some :P
Review: Rich, Smooth, and Truly High-Quality Manuka Honey - This Manuka honey is top-tier quality from the first spoonful. It’s thick, smooth, and has that rich, slightly earthy flavor you only get from real Manuka honey. You can tell instantly that it’s unpasteurized and minimally processed—the taste and texture are just cleaner and more natural than standard honey. It mixes perfectly into tea, spreads easily on toast, and is great straight off the spoon when you need a soothing boost for your throat or digestion. The consistency is dense without being overly sticky, and the sweetness is balanced rather than overpowering. For anyone who uses Manuka honey for wellness, immune support, or just wants something better than regular grocery-store honey, this jar delivers exactly what you expect. Premium quality, great flavor, and worth every bit.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: is this honey an approved umf rating??**
A: This is the review I ledt.
This product should not cost more than your normal average raw honey
Reviewed in the United States on January 17, 2022
Flavor Name: KFactor 16Size: 1.1 Pound (Pack of 1)
Though the company makes no claims of UMF and rates 16 on pollen it's my understanding that in order to label as Manuka it must contain at least rank an 83 on the scale. Bees and trees sent this for a blind lab test. The lab had no idea what brand of honey they were testing. The results came back showing that the MG level was a very low 52. The equivalent UMF rating for MG 52 is…well…it doesn’t exist. What this means is that the level of MG in the honey was so low that it doesn’t even rank on the scale. The UMF/MG rating scale starts at MG 83.

**Q: What is the grade of this manuka honey? I have heard it needs to be over 12 plus.**

**Q: What does the kfactor number mean?**
A: Hello,

Thank you for your interest in our products, we appreciate it.

It is important to note that the UMF Honey Association is a trade association made of voluntary paid membership, and is not a regulatory authority in New Zealand.  As a trade association, they have their own honey grading system that their members must follow.  Both the UMF rating system and our KFactor system have been deemed compliant for use by the NZ regulatory authority.  Because the rating systems are internal standards, comparison of the two is not a transparent exercise.

The regulatory authority in New Zealand, the Ministry of Primary Industries, has recently released the regulatory definition of Manuka honey, which will come into law from 5 February 2018.  This is the result of many years of scientific research to find stable markers that can be easily and quickly replicated in the laboratory environment.  Unfortunately, pollen analysis was not included because this requires specialist knowledge to differentiate the pollen. However, they have included a DNA test to prove floral origin as an easily replicated laboratory test.

The markers used by the UMF association of Leptosperin, Dihydroxyacetone (DHA), and Methylglyoxal (MGO) were not included into the regulatory definition due to stability and other issues undisclosed by the regulatory authority.

The regulatory definition includes 4 chemical markers with varying threshold levels, and the DNA test.  A sample must meet all 5 test standards to be considered (and labelled) as Manuka honey.  More information can be found on the regulatory website here:  http://www.mpi.govt.nz/growing-and-harvesting/honey-and-bees/manuka-honey/

Please check out our website for updates and new products this year and if you’d like to try some samples, please email me back your shipping address.

We hope this helps to clarify the answers to your questions, as we realize that the lack of a regulatory definition until now has created a high amount of confusion in the consumer market.

Thank you,

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Really tasty!
*by L***N on January 26, 2026*

I like the quality of this honey, and raw honey is the best! It's a bit pricey, but honestly, the amount in the jar outweighs it simply because you cannot consume a lot in one use...maybe 2x's a day. It is very sweet, but that is the nature of Manuka. The floral notes are light and blend wonderfully into either my coffee or tea. Even just taking a bite off my spoon is heaven as the texture is smooth and thick and coats the throat nicely when swallowing. It's a great feeling when your throat is sore or dry. It comes with an inner peel up seal so there is no leaking and the jar is dark so no spoilage.
