It says it is and had New Zealand product stickers The taste is very distinct and it is working to get rid of my toe fungus so I guess so.

The Manuka Honey I have had from Wedderspoon and a couple other brands does have a darker dense cloudy appearance then the honey we are used to in the super market in the USA. It has the consistance, to me, of paste with texture. Hope this helps.

All I know is the one i purchased was a hard paste like I am used to getting when I buy natural unprocessed honey. I was very happy with it.

It cannot be compared to the MGO or UMF rating systems. Bioactive 24+ is a confusing rating system probably designed to be similar to the UMF rating system to propel sales. Bioactive 24+ rating system measures peroxide activity only and all honey have peroxide. UMF or MGO measure non-peroxide activity and that's what matters when considering Manuka honey.

Ok I was reading through the responses to this question and to be honest the label identifies the office/ main farm to be in Illinois, USA but also identifies the Product as being from Brazil & Canada.... While I'm delighted to have some Raw Honey to keep me going I know that some Bee Farms slave their bees by moving them from one harvest season to another to keep production high... and never giving them time to rest. This in turn produces lesser quality products. Just like in any production with exhausted workers. I have not yet inquired about the care of the bees in this company but its on my list of things to know. There is a nice flavor to this honey but if you are looking for American honey... this is not the company for you. Sorry

I don't have the box any more, but I want to say it is New Zealand... Website confirms this: www.woolzies.com

Manuka honey is harvested in both Australia and New Zealand as the Manuka tree is native to both isles. However, I do believe New Zealand to be the larger of the two manufacturers. As for which is superior, you would refer to the UMF (unique manuka factor) to determine the purity/potency of the honey. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leptospermum_scopariumhttp://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/M%C4%81nuka_honey

It is not certified organic. It's raw, unprocessed, unfiltered. They do not present it as organic on website. But it is wonderful honey imho!

the labelsays "harvested by healthy bees from eco friendly diverse regions." also says "product of USA and Canada." i trust the company. they have been around for a while. Their label says all the right things and then some. unless they lie, they are a perfect honey source

Not diluted in my opinion. I actually got another brand directly from New Zealand and it seemed slightly diluted and less effective compared to this brand.

The Manuka Honey is not the same consistency as other honey's. This honey is much thicker and its not clear at all. It should taste very sweet. Hope this helps!!

Yes. On the side of the jar it says that it is "unpasteurized", "unfiltered", "fresh raw state." Mine doesn't look like the one pictured. Mine actually has 100% certified organic raw honey with the green and white usda organic seal on the jar. This one shown in the picture doesn't have the word raw therefore, I'm not sure. They took the time to list it on the jar I have so I would think that if it is not listed then it's not.

Dear Bruce,The short answer is, YES. This is this actually unprocessed and unfiltered, among other non invasive procesdures which are generally harmful - e.g. heating - these and others are not used.As a result the honey using 'raw' honey straight from the honeycomb and contains many things such as enzymes, vitamins and other than essential natural 'Mother Nature' ingredients. One of those is small particles of 'bee pollen'. If you want you can order Bee Pollen such as: Stakich BRAZILIAN BEE POLLEN GRANULES 1 lb - 100% Pure, Natural, Unprocessed - I have ordered the honey you are asking about as well as Really Raw Honey (Canadian) and others and thoroughly have enjoyed for many years.

It doesn't say it anywhere I checked, but the product is so great:raw, unfiltered, unprocessed,I can not be happier after I've tried so many different brands...i am from Russia where you can buy honey right from people who actually owns the bees, and I missed good honey for so long. This one product is really good! But if you are looking for an organic one you should look more around. I did with no success! Tatiana

It is 12+. I have used the jar of honey from New Zealand that had a higher rating but I am surprised and pleased that this is working out well too for an ulcer on a diabetic foot. It is convenient and easy to use and can be carried around if needed. I still like having both the jar by Wedderspoon, but right now this is my go to manuka honey for daily dressing changes. I hope this helps you out.

It is raw....(not stated on the container) but the research I have done on this honey indicates it is raw honey....you will recognize the enormous good the honey does for your body. Highly recommend it.

Check out their website for answers! I only purchased at a good price and as long as it is not from China I'm happy. It was very good honey! Just because I purchased this item via Amazon does not make me an expert on the honey. Read the labels on the site. :)
