Wedderspoon KFactor 12 Manuka Honey 250g brings genuine New Zealand manuka to your kitchen in its most natural form. This is raw, unpasteurised multifloral manuka honey, harvested from the remote hills and coastlines of New Zealand and packed at source, so what reaches Malta is exactly what left the hive.

What makes KFactor 12 manuka honey 250g different

Wedderspoon created the KFactor grading system to guarantee authenticity. KFactor 12 confirms the pollen count, purity and traceability expected of true multifloral manuka. Every jar is Non-GMO Project verified and free from added sugars, antibiotics and glyphosate residues.

• Raw and unpasteurised – never heat-treated
• Multifloral manuka, KFactor 12 graded
• Non-GMO Project verified
• Harvested and packed in New Zealand
• 250g glass jar with a rich, caramel-smooth texture

How to enjoy it

Manuka honey is at its best taken straight from the spoon, and KFactor 12 has a smooth, full-bodied sweetness that makes that easy. Stir it into warm (not boiling) water with lemon, drizzle it over porridge or Greek yoghurt, or use it in place of sugar wherever you want deeper flavour.

Because it is raw, the honey may naturally crystallise over time – that is a sign of authenticity, not a fault. Stand the jar in warm water to soften it again.

A brand built on traceability

Wedderspoon has been a pioneer of authentic manuka since 2005, working directly with beekeepers across New Zealand’s South Island. Each batch can be traced from hive to jar, something few honey brands can genuinely offer. You can read more about their hive-to-home standards on the official Wedderspoon site.

Choosing your jar

The KFactor 12 manuka honey 250g jar is the ideal starting point if you are new to manuka – an everyday size at an accessible price. If your household gets through honey quickly, the 500g jar offers better value per gram, and KFactor 16 offers a higher-graded monofloral option. You will find both alongside this jar in our natural food range at Sattva.

KFactor, UMF and MGO – making sense of manuka grading. Different brands grade manuka honey in different ways, which can make shelves confusing. UMF and MGO systems measure specific compounds in monofloral manuka, while Wedderspoon’s KFactor certifies pollen purity, traceability and raw handling across its multifloral and monofloral honeys. None of these systems is a medical rating – they are quality and authenticity standards, and KFactor 12 sits comfortably as the brand’s signature everyday grade.

That authenticity matters because manuka is one of the most imitated foods in the world. More manuka is sold globally each year than New Zealand actually produces, so a verified chain from hive to jar is the only real guarantee you are tasting the genuine article.

Ways to build it into your week

Keep the jar next to the kettle and it will not gather dust. A spoonful in herbal tea after dinner, a drizzle over pancakes at the weekend, a teaspoon whisked into salad dressings with mustard and olive oil – manuka’s depth means a little goes further than regular honey. Bakers love it too: swap it into flapjack or granola recipes for a richer, maltier finish.
