This jar holds a high-strength manuka honey harvested and handled using Steens' Scrape & Separate method to preserve natural texture, enzymes, and flavor.

Each jar is sealed in New Zealand and includes a batch number so you can track origin and authenticity.

What makes Steens Manuka Honey different from regular honey?

Steens Manuka is harvested from New Zealand manuka blossoms and left unpasteurised to retain its natural crystalline structure and flavor complexity. The UMF 20+ and MGO 830+ ratings reflect targeted laboratory testing for manuka-specific markers, separate from ordinary honey grading. The family-run Steens operation emphasizes transparent sourcing and traceability.

• Scrape & Separate handling preserves raw enzymes and texture
• UMF 20+ certification tests nine signature compounds for authenticity
• MGO 830+ indicates a high concentration of methylglyoxal
• Batch traceability printed on each jar for origin verification

How should I use this high-strength manuka honey daily?

Use Steens Manuka Honey as a flavorful spoonful, a natural sweetener in drinks, or a finishing drizzle over breakfast and desserts. Because it’s concentrated, a small amount delivers strong flavor and aroma—ideal for adding depth to recipes or pairing with cheeses and yogurt. Store at room temperature to preserve texture; refrigeration may crystalize raw honey.

• Stir into warm (not boiling) tea or lemon water
• Spread thinly on toast, crackers, or soft cheese
• Mix into dressings or marinades for a rich, honeyed finish
• Keep sealed at room temperature away from direct sunlight

Is this product pure and how is authenticity confirmed?

Steens Manuka Honey is labeled 100% pure and raw, with no added sugars, syrups, or heat processing. Independent UMF certification requires lab testing for multiple manuka markers, while the MGO rating reflects measured methylglyoxal levels. The jar’s batch number enables provenance checks through Steens’ traceability system.

• Raw & unpasteurised processing preserves honey’s natural profile
• UMF 20+ certifies manuka-specific compound profile
• MGO 830+ gives a quantitative concentration measure

How much honey is in the jar and what should I expect from texture and taste?

Expect a dense, creamy-to-crystalline texture typical of raw honey; color ranges from amber to deep gold with a rich, earthy, slightly herbal manuka flavor. Texture may vary with temperature but retains the characteristic mouthfeel of minimally processed honey.

• Net weight: 17.6 ounces / 500 grams
