{"title":"Authentic MGO Manuka Honey UK","description":"\u003ch2\u003eWhat is Manuka Honey?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eManuka honey is a distinctive monofloral honey produced from the nectar of the Leptospermum scoparium plant — commonly known as the manuka bush — which grows wild across New Zealand and parts of Australia. Unlike regular honey, manuka honey has a rich, earthy flavour and a thick, creamy texture that sets it apart from conventional varieties.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat makes manuka honey particularly noteworthy is its naturally high concentration of methylglyoxal (MGO), a compound that occurs in much higher levels in manuka honey than in other types of honey. MGO is used as the basis for grading manuka honey, with higher MGO values indicating a greater concentration of this naturally occurring compound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt Nature's Blends, we source only genuine New Zealand manuka honey that is independently tested and certified for MGO content, so you can shop with confidence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat Does MGO Mean?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMGO stands for methylglyoxal — a naturally occurring compound found in manuka honey. The MGO rating system provides a straightforward measure of manuka honey's potency. The higher the MGO number, the greater the concentration of methylglyoxal in the honey.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCommon MGO ratings you'll find in our range include:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMGO 263+\u003c\/strong\u003e — A popular everyday choice with a well-rounded flavour.

Conventional commercial honey is often heated to improve appearance and extend shelf life, but this process alters the honey's natural composition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy keeping our manuka honey raw, we preserve its natural texture, aroma, and the full spectrum of naturally occurring compounds. You'll notice that our manuka honey has a thick, creamy consistency — a sign of genuine, unprocessed honey. It may crystallise over time, which is entirely natural and does not affect quality. Simply place the jar in warm water to return it to a softer consistency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOur Manuka Honey Range\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe offer a carefully selected range of New Zealand manuka honey products to suit different preferences and budgets:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePure Manuka Honey\u003c\/strong\u003e — Our single-origin, monofloral manuka honey available in MGO 263+, MGO 514+, and MGO 800+ grades.

It is distinguished by its naturally high methylglyoxal (MGO) content and is graded by MGO level to indicate potency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat does the MGO rating mean?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMGO stands for methylglyoxal, a naturally occurring compound found in manuka honey. The MGO rating tells you how much methylglyoxal is present per kilogram of honey. Higher MGO ratings indicate a greater concentration of this compound. All of our manuka honey is independently tested and certified for its stated MGO level.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs your manuka honey raw?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Our manuka honey is raw and unpasteurised, meaning it has not been heat-treated. This preserves its natural texture and the full spectrum of naturally occurring compounds. Raw manuka honey may crystallise over time — this is completely normal and does not indicate any reduction in quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere does your manuka honey come from?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll of our manuka honey is sourced from New Zealand, which is considered the home of genuine manuka honey. New Zealand producers must meet strict standards for manuka honey classification and export.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDo you offer free delivery on manuka honey orders?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, we offer free UK delivery on all orders over £30. Orders below this threshold are charged at our standard delivery rate. We aim to despatch all orders promptly, with most arriving within 2–3 working days.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan manuka honey crystallise?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes — crystallisation is a natural process that occurs in raw, unprocessed honey. It does not indicate spoilage or reduced quality. To soften crystallised honey, place the jar in a bowl of warm water (not boiling) until it returns to a runnier consistency. Avoid microwaving, as high temperatures can alter the honey's natural composition.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"clover-honey-250g","title":"Clover Honey 250g","description":"\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Overview \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA mild and creamy treat that is cherished by honey enthusiasts all over the world.
