Manuka honey is a variant of honey that comes from Australia and New Zealand with unique chemical properties, real healing properties, flavor profiles, and textures. The honey is vastly different than the honey we are used to getting here.
The honey gets its unique properties from the manuka plant. When the bees pollinate and collect nectar from these plants, it produces manuka honey. It has been shown to aid in healing wounds, is antibacterial, and has unique compounds exclusive to manuka honey.
