Source Of Healing Power

New Zealand manuka honey producer Denis Watson features in the Irish Times’ ‘True Characters’ column this week. “My business, Watson & Son was established in 2003, in response to the growing demand for premium manuka honey,” he says. We have over 15,000 beehives; they’re placed in some of the most remote mono-floral manuka areas of New Zealand. The numbers printed on a manuka honey jar label signify the strength of the healing power of the honey — the higher the number the more potent the honey. All of our hives have a GPS location so every batch of honey can be traced back to its source.”
