Watson & Son Manuka Honey MGO 200+ is a premium and global brand of Manuka honey.
Watson & Son, originally the brainchild of the Watson father and son team, is now a part of Oha Honey, which interestingly is owned by one of New Zealand’s most important tribes (iwi) – the Ngāi Tahu.
Premium Manuka honey is a rare commodity and this also explains why it is so much more expensive than other types of honey.
New Zealand is home to the Manuka bush and the nectar from this humble shrub is where this amazing story starts.
Manuka honey has become so famous due to its anti-bacterial activity, which is unique to Manuka honey.
Over the course of much research work conducted on the honey, researchers have discovered that a naturally occurring chemical called methylglyoxal, MGO, plays a key role in the honey’s antibacterial activity.
Honey produced from the Manuka plant contains Methylglyoxal (MGO) a naturally occurring compound. Customers can be confident each batch of Watson & Son Manuka Honey is rigorously tested for its Methylglyoxal content and is certified by an accredited NZ laboratory under the ISO17025 standard.
