Manuka Doctor Mānuka Honey purchased directly from us will have an expiry date with a minimum of 6 months remaining from the date of purchase. Please note that Manuka Doctor Honey is not for resale. In hot weather we recommend that our Manuka Doctor Honey is refrigerated to maintain a thick, golden consistency. If your honey does become runny then simply chill for a few hours. On the subject of plastic, we as a business we have considered switching to glass for our Manuka Honey for some years. However after an impact assessment, it was established that because the product is transported over 11,000 miles by sea, changing from recyclable plastic to glass would add significant weight and therefore fuel, emissions and pollutants to every shipment.
