Ultimate Antibacterial Set 20+Manuka (1x250g) & Active 25+ Oak (1x1kg) - Out of Stock

Debbie’s Highest Grade Manuka Active rating 20+combined with Menelaos’ 25+Oak honey.

We’ve put together the ultimate antibacterial selection for you, to add to your medicine chest. The set is based around our two most antibacterial honeys—a 20+ Manuka and a 25+ Oak honey. These complement each other, as they have different properties, and cover you for all eventualities. What we have done for you is put together an offer to combine the 25+ Active Oak with the 20+ Active Manuka, giving you a combined saving of £49.86. 

What sets Manuka apart is that its antibacterial properties are not affected by heat. Whereas other honeys, like the Oak, are affected by heat. So the Manuka could be used in hot Lemon drinks and then the Oak in situations where heat is not used, such as direct off the spoon and gently swallowed to ease a sore throat or cough.

Please note the Manuka is crystallised and the Oak is runny.

The Manuka

What sets this Manuka apart from most other Manuka's is that it is single source. Almost all Manuka sold by the big brands is a blend from many different beekeepers. So you know nothing about how and where it was produced. With this Manuka we have full confidence in the product.

This raw Mountain Manuka honey is produced by the bees of Debbie, an artisan beekeeper, who lives in a paradise for producing premium Manuka honey.  Her hives are in an area surrounded by Native Forest in the Mount Bruce Conservation Reserve. Here wild Manuka grows up the mountainside. And the Ruamahunga river provides fresh mountain water for the bees to drink.

All of Debbie's Manuka honey is independently certified in New Zealand, through a government scheme to guarantee the quality at a time when there is so much fake Manuka on the market.

About the beekeeper:  Debbie came upon beekeeping by accident, after discovering two wild swarms on her land. She rapidly developed a deep love of beekeeping. Debbie has a genuine love for her bees and this helps in producing an amazing quality raw Manuka honey. Bees are sensitive and respond well when treated with kindness.

The Oak

Preliminary lab tests on this Oak showed that it had some exceptional qualities. So we decided to get its activity level testing. The result came back as 25+. The most potent honey we have ever sold! This Oak is a very thick honey with a flavour to die for. You immediately get a sense of stewed fruit, like plums or prunes, with a malty molasses undertone. It is very pleasant and doesn't have the bitterness of Chestnut honey.

About the beekeeper: Menelaos is a dedicated beekeeper who often sleeps in the forest close to his bees during the honey production season. He follows organic principles and is working to gain organic certification.

Please know that raw honey does crystallise and this is a natural process that occurs mainly due to the natural glucose in raw honey. For more information on why honey sets visit this article and for a more scientific explanation go to wikipedia.
