I tried some Manuka Honey for the first time the other day. It was from a reputable supplier 15+ I think. Well it should be, it cost £12 for a 500g.
To me it tasted like honey with a heavy propolis content.
Now, I know that manuka honey is MEANT to be highly anti-bacterial but would a honey and propolis mix be just as effective in this regard?
Never under-estimate the power of the NZ marketeers...
