Wedderspoon Organic Raw Manuka Honey KFactor 16, Certified Organic Unpasteurised New Zealand Manuka Honey, 250g

Wedderspoon Organic Raw Manuka Honey KFactor 16 Details

Certified organic, raw, unpasteurised manuka honey from New Zealand at KFactor 16, tested to meet or exceed the MPI standard for authentic monofloral manuka honey. 250g.

Organic certification on honey is harder than on a crop, because bees forage over kilometres and a beekeeper cannot fence that. It requires hives in a certified area large enough to contain the foraging range. That constraint is most of why this carries a premium — roughly 40% more per gram.

It also carries the MPI monofloral test. New Zealand's Ministry for Primary Industries sets the chemical and DNA markers separating monofloral from multifloral manuka, so meeting it is verified rather than a marketing word.

KFactor is Wedderspoon's own rating, and it is not the same as the MGO or UMF numbers other brands print. It measures pollen count and authenticity — whether the honey is genuinely manuka from the region claimed — rather than methylglyoxal concentration. A higher KFactor means more manuka pollen, not more MGO. Do not compare KFactor against UMF as though they were one scale.

The honey is raw and unpasteurised. Commercial honey is heated and filtered to stay clear on a shelf; skipping that keeps enzymes, pollen and texture intact but means it will crystallise. Crystallisation is a sign it has not been over-processed, not a fault.

Wedderspoon is a Canadian-founded company sourcing its honey from New Zealand's manuka bush. KFactor is Wedderspoon's own rating system, based on pollen count and authenticity testing rather than the MGO or UMF scales other brands use.

Who Wedderspoon Organic Raw Manuka Honey KFactor 16 Is For

For anyone who buys organic as a rule, and anyone wanting the MPI monofloral verification specifically. If organic certification is not something you weigh, the standard KFactor 16 is the same grade for meaningfully less.

Never give honey to an infant under 12 months. Honey can carry Clostridium botulinum spores that an infant gut cannot defend against, and infant botulism is a serious illness. Honey is a bee product, so it is not vegan and is unsuitable for anyone with an allergy to bees, bee products or pollen. It is roughly 80% sugar — treat it as a sweetener if you are managing blood glucose.
