– Brand name producing manuka honey: Doctor,
– Origin of manuka honey: made in New Zealand or made in Australia
– UMF index (ranges from 5 – 25) or MGO index (ranges from 83 – 1200).
– Barcode of each jar of manuka honey
To ensure transparency and quality of each bottle of manuka honey sold on the market, companies allow users to query the address of the farmer who collected the manuka honey.
Therefore, when buying honey, you can access the website we provided in part 1, find out if the brand you are buying is on that list, then go to each of those brands and access the results. Are the packaging and labels of the jar of honey you buy exactly as provided by the manufacturer? If not, most of it will be fake.
Note: Absolutely do not buy manuka honey without labels or quality certificates, especially “extracted” type of manuka honey (big bottle then sold into small bottles)… are not trustworthy.

“Method 1: You leave the jar of manuka honey you bought in the refrigerator for 24 hours. If the manuka honey is fake, the sugar will settle at the bottom of the jar.
Method 2: Dip the green onion stalks in a jar of honey. If the manuka honey is fake, the onion stalks will not wilt, but if the honey is genuine, it will wilt the onion stalks.
Method 3: Leave the honey jar tightly closed for a few days. If the honey ferments and creates gas when opened, it is pure manuka honey. If there is no such phenomenon, it is fake manuka honey.
Method 4: Take a cup of filtered water and add a few drops of honey into the cup. Fake Manuka honey will dissolve immediately in water, while genuine Manuka honey will sink to the bottom of the cup and not dissolve at all.
Method 5: Use a little New Zealand honey to dip an oil lamp into it and light it. If the oil lamp burns, it is pure Manuka honey, if not, then the honey has been mixed.”
However, in our opinion, this is only a measure to distinguish whether honey in general is pure or has added sugar, but these measures should not be used to distinguish real and fake manuka honey.
In general, with a high-end product like manuka honey, first of all, the brand, quality stamp and a reputable purchasing address are the most important things for buyers.
However, there is no absolute guarantee, because for example, Evergreen Life Ltd – a famous manuka honey company, in 2019 was also accused of adding chemicals to their manuka honey to increase the UMF index, helping to increase the company’s net profit.
This is the reason why you should also diversify brands to experience when using manuka honey or any other product.
