Question 1

UMF Certified?

Accepted Answer

This is not UMF honey. Yes, Mossops are UMF-licensed and they do make UMF manuka honey, but this is not it. Chances are it's a cheap honey blend not good enough to be UMF-certified, which this company has had labelled with a meaningless "bio-active 20+" label to mislead us by making it look like a UMF rating. I steer clear of this and stick to the real UMF honey.

Question 2

It is labeled manuka honey but ingredients says 100% new zealand honey- why is that?

Accepted Answer

The Bees can not be controlled to just get pollen from the Manuka Trees. There is really no such thing as 100% of any kind of honey. The bees go were they want to. The 20+ is tested for the activity so it gives the desired results and is not tested for its purity.

Question 3

what is the difference between certified 20+ manuka honey and umf 20+ manuka honey?

Accepted Answer

According to the their website, their rating system of 20+ has a Methylglyoxal content of 95 mg/kg.  That content would equate to UMF 5+ .   If UMF 5+ is what you're looking for, then consider this purchase.  If not, look elsewhere.

Question 4

What is the name of this producer, Manuka Honey? That name is not on the list of umfha licensees.

Accepted Answer

PRI it stands for Pacific Resources International. packed and tested by Mossop's Honey of New Zealand
