MGO 400+ means the honey has been tested at 400 mg/kg or more of methylglyoxal (MGO). It's the first of Wedderspoon's three high-potency grades: raw, never pasteurized, and independently lab tested batch by batch.
What MGO 400+ means
MGO stands for methylglyoxal, the naturally occurring compound Mānuka Honey is graded on. MGO 400+ is tested at 400 mg/kg or more of it.
How does it compare? MGO 150+ is the top of Wedderspoon's everyday range. MGO 400+ is the next step up.
Where it sits
Wedderspoon's everyday grades are MGO 50+, MGO 100+ and MGO 150+. The high-potency grades are MGO 400+, MGO 850+ and MGO 1100+. MGO 400+ is where high potency begins, and MGO 1100+ is the highest potency we make.
Who it's for
The curious upgrader. You've enjoyed MGO 50+ to MGO 150+ and want to see what more methylglyoxal feels like in your routine.
The daily ritual keeper. You take Mānuka Honey every day and want a more potent spoonful.
The careful comparer. You want high potency without jumping straight to the top grade.
What doesn't change when you step up
The standards. MGO 400+ is made the same way as every Wedderspoon grade:
- Raw. Never pasteurized.
- From New Zealand. 100% sourced and packed there.
- Tested. Every batch, by an independent New Zealand government-approved lab.
What does change
MGO 400+ is not organic. Wedderspoon's organic range is MGO 50+, MGO 100+ and MGO 150+.
Where to go from here
Want even more? MGO 850+.
Want the highest potency we make? MGO 1100+.
