Manuka honey indeed has medicinal benefits! And it's a great treat too if you're looking for something sweet but healthy. 😋 But it can come expensive as well.
During my travel to NZ, we visited a small town called Frasertown where a company named Te Kapu makes honey from Manuka and other flowers like Rewarewa. And so far, they offer the cheapest price for Manuka honey, maybe because it's not as commercialized as other brands.
Woow nice story!! You were really lucky, i don't think that many persons get to taste it directly from NZ!
How did it taste?? Did you bought some jars to take back to your country??
Manuka honey has quite a different taste, texture and viscosity compared to typical raw honey you see in the supermarket. And it tastes great especially when you put a little bit of it in your tea. Yes I bought two jars of it - one empty, one almost gone! 😄
