Biosota: Setting the benchmark in high MGO Manuka honey

When it comes to natural wellness, high MGO Manuka honey is in a class of its own. At Biosota, we’ve dedicated three generations to perfecting the craft of producing some of the most potent, medicinally active Manuka honey in the world. 

Our secret? Lies in the rare combination of Australia’s pristine floral sources, expert craftsmanship, and a deep respect for both our bees and the land they forage.

What sets high MGO Manuka honey apart

Manuka honey gets its unique medicinal strength from MGO, or Methylglyoxal - a naturally occurring compound formed from nectar found in Manuka flowers (Leptospermum species). The higher the MGO rating, the more powerful the honey’s antibacterial and antimicrobial properties.

Studies suggest that high MGO Manuka honey may help:

• Support wound healing and tissue repair
  

• Inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria, including antibiotic-resistant strains

• Relieve coughs, sore throats and cold and flu symptoms
  

• Promote digestive health and balance the gut microbiome
  

While everyday honey offers natural sweetness, high MGO Manuka honey is valued for its scientifically supported, therapeutic potential - making it a sought-after choice for both daily wellness and targeted health needs.

Australia’s Manuka honey advantage

Many believe Manuka honey is exclusive to New Zealand, but Australia is home to more than 80 native Leptospermum species - many producing nectar naturally rich in MGO.

In the subtropical regions of Queensland and New South Wales, we’re blessed with up to three flowering seasons each year, giving our bees more opportunities to collect the potent nectar that makes our honey so rare.

Biosota’s hives are placed in pristine, remote areas - far from farms, roads, and pollutants - allowing our antibiotic-free bees to work undisturbed. This clean environment ensures the purity of the nectar and the integrity of every jar we produce.

From hive to jar: Preserving the purity and potency of Manuka

Harvesting is just the beginning of the journey to creating high MGO Manuka honey at its purest and most potent. It doesn’t reach its peak the moment it’s extracted. Rather, the natural compound DHA (dihydroxyacetone) continues converting to MGO long after harvest.

That’s why we mature our honey for up to 12 months at carefully controlled temperatures - preserving delicate enzymes and maximising bioactivity.

Every batch of Biosota’s Manuka honey is independently laboratory-tested to confirm its MGO rating, authenticity, and purity before it reaches you. It’s how we guarantee you’re getting exactly what the label promises.

Why ‘high MGO’ really matters

Choosing high MGO Manuka honey isn’t about chasing numbers - it’s about medicinal potency and proven health benefits. For example, while an MGO 100+ honey might be perfect for everyday immune support, higher grades such as MGO 1200+ or even 2200+ deliver exceptional antibacterial strength. These ultra-premium grades are often chosen by people with specific health goals or who value the strongest natural wellness products available.

Whether you use it by the spoonful, stir it into warm tea, or apply it topically to support skin healing, high MGO Manuka honey offers a level of bioactivity you simply won’t find in regular honey.
