This spectacular jar of Manuka Honey is a very special limited edition from Tregothnan, with only a few jars left from the season. Tregothnan is the only place outside of New Zealand to produce Manuka Honey, which apart from proven antibacterial properties, is said to have great health benefits. Our Manuka Honey is not only extremely rare, but fragrant and delicious.

420g of Manuka Honey is contained in this limited edition jar and comes with a limited edition card certified by Tregothnan’s Chief Apiarist.
When New Zealand Television visited Tregothnan we were delighted to tour the oldest bushes of Manuka outside of New Zealand, indeed it was Tregothnan that first introduced Manuka bushes (Leptospermum scoparium) to the world in the 1880s. It had been suggested that the Manuka should only be grown in New Zealand and that stock from these original introductions should be sent back. When it was explained that the huge Manuka industry in New Zealand relies on the European Honeybee that the British took there, the debate subsided!

In June the cascades of flowers looking like a covering of snow on the 10ft tall bushes, humming with bees!

We do not use the UMF rating as it is trademarked by Comvita. However, we frequently host groups from New Zealand and share experiences with members of the various bee and honey associations in New Zealand, including Nuffield Scholars.

About us

Rare plants have been nurtured by the same family at Tregothnan since 1334. The first tea was grown in the UK in 1999 to put the ‘English into English Tea’ and the most British tea in history was first sold in 2005.

Now, over 26 miles of tea bushes thrive in the unique microclimate, seven miles inland and with a deep-sea creek bringing regular fog. Manuka bushes have also thrived here since the 1880’s, the first grown outside of New Zealand and producing the most delicious honey.
