Australian Manuka NPA 31+ is pure Australian Jellybush Honey. Tested at independent laboratories and guaranteed to be at least 31+ NPA this higher-rated honey is rich in flavor and one of our finest. High in minerals, antioxidants, and bioflavonoids, this potent antibacterial honey will help to enhance and protect your body’s own defenses. This active honey is an MGO1717 mg/kg rating. 

Biosota produces some of the rarest and strongest Manuka honey in the world with greater amounts of methylglyoxal (MGO) and is guaranteed to be certified 100% organic. We take extra care in the placement of our hives and harvesting to ensure all our Manuka honey has a very high amount of its special antibacterial compounds.

Our honey has high levels of Non-Peroxide Activity (NPA) or Unique Leptospermum Factor (ULF), a rating system that compares its bacteria-killing strength to that of standard Phenol solutions. The higher the number the more antibacterial properties it has.

Australian Certified Organic honey must also meet strict requirements including the beehive locations kept a minimum of five kilometers away from any major highways, agricultural land, industry, or habitable developments. It must also be extracted to ensure it is kept below 45⁰c to guarantee all the good bacteria are maintained (also known as raw honey). Biosota guarantees our honey is produced and packed in a pollution-free environment and is handled with great care.

Achieving these extremely high grades and quality requires specific scientific and industry knowledge and careful collection which all go into making Biosota Manuka honey rare, distinct, and superior honey unlike any other in the world.

Most people, familiar with Manuka honey, think it comes only from New Zealand. This is completely inaccurate.

This impression is due mainly to the very strong marketing effort by the honey experts in New Zealand. They have done a great job in educating consumers about Manuka honey and its health benefits and we respect their effort and we send them our thanks.
The plant that the bees use to make Manuka honey grows in Australia as well as New Zealand and on this page, we will present information that will confirm this assertion. The Australian Government has made a number of studies. Here is some of the text of one important study.

Leptospermum scoparium (Manuka or Tea tree or just Leptospermum) is a shrub or small tree native to New Zealand and southeast Australia. It is found throughout New Zealand but is particularly common on the drier east coasts of the North Island and the South Island, and in Australia in Tasmania, Victoria, and New South Wales. Manuka (from Maori ‘manuka’) is the name used in New Zealand, and ‘tea tree’ is a common name in Australia and to a lesser extent also in New Zealand. This name arose because Captain Cook used the leaves to make a ‘tea’ drink. The common name “Tea Tree” is also shared with the related Melaleuca tree of Australia suggesting that both were used to make tea by Captain Cook.

Manuka honey, produced when honeybees gather the nectar from its flowers, is distinctively flavored, darker, and richer in taste than clover honey, and has antibacterial and antifungal properties. The finest quality Manuka honey with the most potent antimicrobial properties is produced from hives placed in wild, uncultivated areas with abundant growth of Manuka bushes.

Australia vs. New Zealand Manuka Honey

We bought different high quality manuka honey from New Zealand, all of them had the same texture and taste. The Australian one is totally different as taste, nothing bad, looks like a jelly honey, sweater and different texture. Just looking to see it's effects: MGO 1717 mg/kg vs UMF 26+ that we used to buy. As Australia or this company is not using UMF system, how we can trace the rest of the good stuff tested by the UMF system, please?
Just to make it clear, we loved and we will order more. :)

Thank you, Cristian, for taking time to leave us a review!

All types of honey contain Hydrogen Peroxide in various degrees, that is why honey, in general, is considered to be an antibacterial product, of course in case it was not overheated.
Manuka honey is the only honey in the world that contains Non-Peroxide Activity (NPA), responsible for stable antibacterial activity which can not be destroyed by heat, light or body enzymes. In New Zealand Non-Peroxide Activity (NPA) is called Unique Manuka Factor (UMF).

While Australia does not use the UMF grading system, both Australian and New Zealand Manuka honeys share important active compounds that make them valuable. Here’s a breakdown of how the two can be correlated based on the active ingredients that are important for their quality and potency:
1. MGO (Methylglyoxal)
Australian Manuka honey is tested for its MGO content, just like New Zealand Manuka honey. MGO is a natural compound responsible for the antibacterial properties of Manuka honey.
The higher the MGO levels, the stronger the antibacterial potency. For instance, honey with MGO 100+ is equivalent to UMF 5+, and honey with MGO 550+ correlates to around UMF 16+.
2. Leptosperin
Both Australian and New Zealand Manuka honeys are tested for Leptosperin, which confirms the honey’s Manuka flower origin. Leptosperin is a unique marker that helps distinguish genuine Manuka honey from others.
3. DHA (Dihydroxyacetone)
Found in the nectar of Manuka flowers, DHA converts into MGO over time. Both systems measure this component to assess the potential increase in MGO levels as the honey matures.

Understanding the Differences:
UMF System: New Zealand’s UMF grading system measures a combination of MGO, DHA, and Leptosperin, providing a cumulative rating (e.g., UMF 5+, UMF 10+, etc.).
Australian Testing: Australian Manuka honey is often graded by the MGO content, which is a direct measure of its antibacterial strength.
Some companies, in addition to MGO contant, list the contant of NPA, wich is the same as UMF.
How to Compare:
You can correlate the honey from both countries based on their MGO levels. Below is a general comparison chart for reference:

MGO Level (Australia) Equivalent UMF Rating (New Zealand)
MGO 83+ > UMF 5+,
MGO 261+ > UMF 10+,
MGO 356+ > UMF 12+,
MGO 512+ > UMF 15+,
MGO 550+ > UMF 16+,
MGO 826+ > UMF 20+,
MGO1197+ > UMF 25+.
Both Australian and New Zealand Manuka honeys share similar health benefits and active compounds, even if they use different certification systems. The quality and potency of the honey are comparable, especially when looking at the MGO levels.

The best!

Even though I’ve just received my consignment two days ago since there was a delay with the postal office, I began the honey almost immediately.
I can tell that this NPA 31+ manuka is way more potent than my previous NPA20.
I am looking forward to seeing the results at the end of July’24 and then every month and year going forward.
Thank you for your excellent services in providing the best honeys to us!

The best honey in the world

I have tried many kinds of Manuka but Biosota is by far the best. Amazing taste , versatile with a specific flavour. I have been struggling for years with H . Pillory, but after I started this honey in just couple days , my stomach pain was gone. Biosota is miracle of nature! I highly recommend it to people with digestive issues.

Hi Carmen, your feedback made our days! We're so glad you had a wonderful experience with BioSota High Grade Manuka Honey!
