What is Manuka Honey?
Koala Valley Produce supplies premium Australian Manuka honey under its own brand. Produced from the nectar of native Australian Leptospermum species, Manuka honey is valued for its distinctive natural characteristics.
Manuka honey holds a strong premium position due to its naturally occurring methylglyoxal, commonly known as MGO. This signature compound is associated with Manuka honey’s natural antibacterial activity and is a key reason for its growing appeal among health-conscious consumers.
This natural compound is quantified through the MGO rating, which indicates the minimum methylglyoxal content of the honey in milligrams per kilogram. To verify the rating, the MGO content of Koala Valley Produce Manuka honey is independently tested by a laboratory approved by the Australian Manuka Honey Association.
