Mossop's UMF Manuka Honey
The monofloral manuka range of the New Zealand brand Mossop's Honey, labelled UMF 5+, 10+ and 15+.
Mossop's UMF Manuka Honey is the monofloral manuka range of the New Zealand brand Mossop's Honey, based in the Bay of Plenty since 1947. The honey comes from the manuka shrub (Leptospermum scoparium) across various areas of the North Island. The range has three grades: UMF 5+ (MGO 200+) and UMF 10+ (MGO 300+) in 250 g, 500 g and 1 kg jars, and UMF 15+ (MGO 515+) in 250 g and 500 g jars. Each batch is laboratory tested; the producer stresses that nothing is added to the honey and gives its UMF licence number, 1021. The jars state Product of New Zealand.
Why this matters to you: you can check that this manuka is genuine by the UMF mark and licence number 1021 on the label.
