LOCAL MANUKA HONEY FROM THE WAITAKERE RANGES

Christopher from Massey

If you're after locally foraged Manuka Honey, let me suggest this 200mgo batch made by my beehives in the Waitakere Ranges.
These 500g pots are $40 each and can be included in the mix&match discounts my online store does automatically as you add potted honey to the shopping cart (e.g. 10%… View more
If you're after locally foraged Manuka Honey, let me suggest this 200mgo batch made by my beehives in the Waitakere Ranges.
These 500g pots are $40 each and can be included in the mix&match discounts my online store does automatically as you add potted honey to the shopping cart (e.g. 10% off for 4-5 pots, 15% for 6+, 25% for 12+).

This is a delicious blend of Manuka and Rewarewa honey from the forested north-eastern slopes of west Auckland’s Waitakere Ranges. Early season honey from the spring of 2020, this has a Manuka rating of 200 MGO. The caramel-like flavor of the Rewarewa nectar is a smooth complement that blunts the sharper Manuka taste in this honey. Delicious local honey for West Aucklanders.

Raw and unpasteurised. This honey has set solid but can be softened again by heating it gently.

Pickup is from Massey, or these can be couriered to you with Post Haste.
