Why Pouatu
Mānuka
Mānuka
Pouatu Mānuka Limited is a boutique company producing honey from New Zealand’s unique Mānuka tree, also an award-winning multifloral Forest honey.
Our location is in The Forgotten World of New Zealand. It’s an area of wild, natural beauty and a place where our bees can thrive undisturbed.
We manage every part of the process to ensure quality – from land care, to hive management, to harvesting and packaging.
Our owners include experienced beekeepers who all love being part of this amazing industry. Honey has been around forever; it is nature’s own superfood and we are here to deliver the premium product.
Pouatu Mānuka is truly single sourced.
We don’t blend from regions around New Zealand and keep to our single sourced creation. Our intention is to capture the flavour of one place – The Forgotten World.
We sell only what our harvest provides each season; quantities are strictly limited. This translates to unrivalled taste. Unlike many other Mānuka honeys that are sharp and astringent. Here at Pouatu we pursue a subtle, gentle flavour profile with a smooth, velvety texture and finish.
Mount Pouatu is the name of the prominent peak on our land – a known landmark.
Pou means an important marker. Atu refers to presenting or offering.
Working with our name we say our wonderful honey ‘gives back and restores’, we figured that’s pretty much a perfect description.
Our ethos is clear – keep it simple and make sure everything we do is 100% right!
We must produce the best honey, look after our bees and their hives, look after the land as well as building strong long term relationships across our business.
Our honey is good – it needs to be talked about!
Feedback is 100% positive – we need, we welcome all contact, all questions, all feedback.
