What is methylglyoxal (MGO)?
MGO, or methylglyoxal, is an antibacterial compound that’s unique to Mānuka honey, and known for its beneficial anti-bacterial properties.
It’s naturally found in the nectar of the Mānuka tea tree flower and transferred to our honey by incredible bees.
Where does Manukora honey come from?
Mānuka honey can only be produced in New Zealand from the nectar of the Mānuka tea tree flower. It blossoms for two to six weeks during the summer, and bees collect the nectar and pollen.
All Manukora Honey is ethically produced and sourced from New Zealand and you can check the origin of your batch by scanning the unique QR code found on your honey.
Why make the switch from regular honey to Mānuka honey?
Regular honey is often processed and pasteurized with high heat – this destroys many of the naturally occurring and beneficial nutrients.
Even if you purchase raw honey, you still won’t find ingredients like MGO. You can feel good knowing that all Manukora is packed with antioxidants, prebiotics, and nutrients.

The Art of Ethical Beekeeping
Our beekeepers practice the Art of Ethical Beekeeping - a traditional way of beekeeping that prioritizes the care of our bees and their environment. We look after our bees, and they look after us.
01
Low Hive Number Per Site
We keep hive numbers intentionally low so every colony has abundant nectar and the space to thrive naturally — never overcrowded, always in balance with their environment.
02
No Excessive Hive Transportation
Our hives stay put outside of moving them short distances to new nectar sources over winter. We don’t truck them around for crop pollination, protecting the bees from stress and harm while preserving the purity of their environment.
03
Honey Saved for the Bees
We always leave enough honey in the hive to sustain the colony through winter and never feed sugar syrups — because healthy bees make better honey. It’s how we protect both the bees and the brilliance of what they create.
04
Remote and Pure
Our hives live deep in New Zealand’s untouched Mānuka forests — far from pesticides, pollution, and urban agriculture. Every batch is third-party tested to verify its purity and potency.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Mānuka honey?
Mānuka honey is not your typical honey – it’s richer, darker, creamier, and loaded with 3 times as many antioxidants. Plus, it has a unique antibacterial compound called methylglyoxal (MGO).
What does MGO mean?
Methylglyoxal (MGO) is the unique naturally occurring antibacterial properties in Mānuka honey. A higher MGO value indicates higher antibacterial activity, it also indicates higher levels of other active, beneficial compounds in the Mānuka honey.In simple terms, the higher the MGO, the more potent the honey is.
What are the best benefits of Mānuka honey?
Manuka honey is packed with extraordinary bioactive nutrients that provide the following benefits; -
-> Supports a high-functioning immune system
-> Promotes optimal gut health
-> Provides clean, long lasting energy
How is Mānuka honey different to local honey?
While we wholeheartedly support the wonders of local honey and its array of benefits, Mānuka honey stands in a league of its own. Produced exclusively in the remote Manuka tea tree forests of New Zealand, it boasts exceptional levels of bioactive properties, such as MGO, Leptosperin, and oligosaccharides that are not found in other honey types.
Why is Mānuka more expensive than regular/local honey?
Mānuka is a rare honey variety produced only in New Zealand with unique beneficial compounds not found in regular/local honey. It is highly superior to regular highly processed honey found in your local grocery store. Most regular honey in grocery stores has either been heated to high temperatures (which removes the beneficial properties) or blended with lower-quality sweeteners.
Compared to other types of honey, Mānuka is darker in color, has a richer flavor profile, and a much thicker texture. This delicious, creamy caramel honey is also packed with bioactive compounds not found in other honey, including the unique, naturally occurring, antibacterial methylglyoxal (MGO), as well as a number of unique antioxidants and prebiotics.
