The true meaning of raw honey, is the lack of heat and fine filters being used in the process of removing the honey from the comb. Our patented method of extracting the honey from the comb,means we don't need to heat the honey or use fine filters. This provides a deliciously rich, textural honey, full of naturally occurring bio-available bee bread, pollen and wax particles and allows melt-in-your-mouth honey crystals to form.

We work closely with our land partners to ensure relationships are fair and ethical. All our hives are regularly checked to ensure the health of the hive and the bees, and our bee swarms flourish year after year. In winter months, when the bees are hibernating, we ensure they are well fed, and can get the rest they need at the end of their peak season of gathering pollen and nectar from the New Zealand Flora.

We are the beekeepers, the harvesters, the bottlers, the designers, do-ers, thinkers and everything in-between. We don't buy our honey, we nurture our bees while they create it. All our honey is bottled and labelled in New Zealand. It all started with Paul and Sheryl Steens' love for bees, natural resources and of course, raw honey.

Delicious, thick, authentic and a good overall price for the volume … many Manuka honey options out there today… this one is not heavily processed (only the wax is removed and it’s not heat treated) a good value for a high quality, natural and healthy product!
Look, we get 1 body. It's worth buying the best to help that body be healthy. I started with low-end, cheaper versions of Manuka to combat GERD. It worked, but in reality, I was using more & had some times when it didn't fully help. Then, I began using it for other health benefits. Honestly, the cheaper ones I wasn't fond of the flavor. One use of Steens & I knew I'd never go back to the lower-end versions. I'm no scientist but I do know my body & Steens is just overall more efficient with less volume than cheaper, more processed versions. I'm also diabetic & it has never spiked my glucose levels. My endocrinologist explained that this is because of its much higher, more pure/ raw bioavailability. Basically it's so natural that the body processes it naturally; unlike highly processed foods that don't offer the easily absorbed positive nutrients it may have in it because it's bound to processed stuff that doesn't allow the absorption. So without question, I will be buying Steens often! Buy it, because you are worth putting only the best inside of you! 🍯
