Is Wedderspoon Real Mānuka Honey? Twenty Years of Getting It Right

The short answer: yes. Wedderspoon Mānuka Honey is 100% sourced and packed in New Zealand. Every batch is independently lab tested by a New Zealand government-approved lab. Every jar carries a potency rating, and current jars show MGO (methylglyoxal) on the front label. It’s raw and never pasteurized. And Wedderspoon has been bringing Mānuka Honey from New Zealand for twenty years.

Mānuka Honey is one of the most valuable honeys in the world, so it’s fair to ask whether a jar is the real thing. Here’s the proof.

Proof #1: It comes from New Zealand. All of it.

Wedderspoon Mānuka Honey is 100% sourced in New Zealand and 100% packed in New Zealand. From the hive to the jar, it stays there.

Proof #2: Every batch is independently tested

Every batch of Wedderspoon Mānuka Honey is tested by an independent, New Zealand government-approved lab. Not some batches, every batch.

Proof #3: Six MGO grades, from every day to high potency

MGO, short for methylglyoxal, is the naturally occurring compound used to rate Mānuka Honey’s potency. Wedderspoon makes six MGO grades:

1. MGO 50+: Best for everyday enjoyment
2. MGO 100+: Incorporate into your meals & recipes
3. MGO 150: A step-up for everyday use
4. MGO 400+: Solid strength for consistent routines
5. MGO 850+: Higher potency for extra wellness support
6. MGO 1100+: Wedderspoon's highest potency

For high-potency Mānuka Honey, Wedderspoon makes MGO 850+ and MGO 1100+, the highest MGO grade in our range.

Proof #4: It’s raw and never pasteurized

Wedderspoon Mānuka Honey is raw and never pasteurized. It's straight from the hive, just how nature intended.

Proof #5: It’s certified where it counts

Our certified lines are USDA Organic and Non-GMO Project Verified. Those certifications come from independent programs, not from us.

Our organic range is MGO 50+, MGO 100+ and MGO 150+. Higher grades, MGO 400+, MGO 850+ and MGO 1100+, are not organic. If organic matters most to you, choose from the organic range. If potency matters most, look further up the ladder.

Proof #6: Twenty years of getting it right

Wedderspoon has been bringing Mānuka Honey from New Zealand to the US for over twenty years!
