MOUNT SOMERS - A product of Midlands Apiaries

Mount Somers Honey is a statement of integrity and a genuine promise of honest to goodness quality.

Founded on a bee keeping heritage of more than 100 years. Midlands Apiaries proudly developed the Mount Somers brand to firstly showcase ‘real’ Manuka Honey and secondly to champion the other fantastic Honey floral varieties that the unique landscape of New Zealand produces.

GUARDIANS OF THE NEW ZEALAND MANUKA HONEY INDUSTRY

Mount Somers is a brand committed to the protection of the Manuka Honey Industry in NZ. We understand that products need to be of the very highest quality to be worthy of ‘Produced in New Zealand’ tag. We do not blend and label our product offshore or shy away from regulation. We do not look for ways around the MPI Manuka Honey Science Definition - we embrace it.

CHAMPION TO THE CONSUMER

At Mount Somers we put the consumer first. We believe that when you buy a jar of Honey then at the least, you should receive a ‘real’ jar of Honey. Sadly, we live in a world of fake, deliberate cost cutting adulteration and blatant counterfeit. That is not us. We don’t compromise just to make it cheaper. Mount Somers is what it is, pure, untarnished and untampered, unpasteurized, raw and natural. If it does not carry the UMF quality mark, then it may not be real. Only honey that passes the MPI Manuka Honey Science Definition, qualifies to carry the UMF logo. 

AMBASSADOR OF THE RESOURCE

Mount Somers wants to take the message to the world. Manuka Honey is the rarest commercially harvested Honey on the planet. Of all Honey varieties Manuka is the most medically researched and scientifically studied.

Manuka honey is at the forefront of advanced wound care and surgical dressings. Ongoing clinical medical and scientific research is focused on Manuka Honey’s many and complex benefits and it’s anti-microbial and antibiotic properties.

A resource with a history entrenched in natural medicine has become a trusted family favourite. Everyone knows a story about or a friend who has experienced the wonders of Manuka Honey. Anecdotal evidence and personal recommendation are the driving forces behind the global phenomenon.
