The number on the front of the pot represents the mg per kg of MGO (Methylglyoxal) and the related strength of Antimicrobial Activity, which is known to kill certain types of bacteria. The greater the number, the stronger the Antimicrobial Activity.
MGO in Mānuka honey is naturally made in the hive from DHA which is present in the nectar of the Manuka Bush. Within the hive DHA undergoes the Maillard reaction to naturally form MGO.
100% Genuine New Zealand Mānuka Honey. Independently tested to show it meets the New Zealand Government's definition of Mānuka honey.
Pure New Zealand Mānuka Honey has a unique taste that changes as the MGO rating increases. It isn't as sweet as most mass produced honey varieties so to help you decide on the taste and antimicrobial properties (MGO rating) that's perfect for you we've created this handy taste chart.
Honey should not be given to infants under 12 months old.
Manuka Doctor Mānuka Honey purchased directly from us will have an expiry date with a minimum of 6 months remaining from the date of purchase.
Please note that Manuka Doctor Honey is not for resale.
In hot weather we recommend that our Manuka Doctor Honey is refrigerated to maintain a thick, golden consistency. If your honey does become runny then simply chill for a few hours.
On the subject of plastic, we as a business we have considered switching to glass for our Manuka Honey for some years.
However after an impact assessment, it was established that because the product is transported over 11,000 miles by sea, changing from recyclable plastic to glass would add significant weight and therefore fuel, emissions and pollutants to every shipment.

Best Honey for the best proce
"Absolutely love manuka doctor honey. I use it daily in my coffee instead of sugar. I always seem to find brilliant deals each month on the website. I usually buy bulk and this saves me a lot of money. We all know manuka honey is extremely expensive when you buy more than a couple of kg each month but this website and company have saved me so much money and possibly even my health. Always delivered on time and without any problems. Perfect thanks all"

Q&A
Is this free postage & packing
Hi Ken, the 40 MGO is not a free postage and packing deal. Our normal delivery fees apply and you will only get free postage when you spend £60 or more. Hope this helps.
I want to know the expiration date
Hi, our BBE can vary depending on the batch and the date of ordering. If the BBE is not shown on the website this will mean that the product has an absolute minimum BBE date of 6 months.
It's not showing a Best before end date on side of jar 500g 40 MGO £13.50
Hi, Mānuka Honey purchased directly from Manuka Doctor will have an expiry date with a minimum of 6 months remaining from the date of purchase.
Why is the smaller pot of 40mgu dearer than the larger 100mgu pot?
Hi, we run promotions across our products. If one rating is on offer then it may be cheaper than a lower rating for a set period of time.
