Variety Sampler Box 4 x 250g | 309 Honey
Four Coromandel honeys in one box — mānuka, Pōhutukawa and Native Bush side by side.
$79.99
Description
A genuine taste of New Zealand in one box. This 309 Honey Variety Sampler brings together four of the Coromandel's most distinctive raw honeys — two mānuka grades plus two of Aotearoa's most loved floral honeys, Pōhutukawa and Native Bush. It's the perfect introduction to what makes New Zealand honey so special, and a beautiful gift that goes beyond the expected.
All four honeys are raw and unpasteurised, sourced from 309 Honey's own hives in the Coromandel Peninsula — one of New Zealand's most pristine and biodiverse beekeeping regions.
What's in the box
- Classic Monofloral Mānuka 150+ — 250g — Pure certified monofloral mānuka honey, meeting New Zealand's strict MPI export standards. Earthy, rich, and complex with genuine bioactive properties. A proper everyday mānuka.
- Multifloral Mānuka 100+ — 250g — Lighter and naturally sweeter than monofloral grades, with real mānuka content and a smooth, approachable character. A great starting point for mānuka newcomers.
- Pōhutukawa Honey — 250g — Made from the nectar of the iconic New Zealand Christmas tree, pōhutukawa honey has a distinctively buttery, creamy flavour unlike anything you'll find outside of Aotearoa. A true New Zealand original.
- Native Bush Honey — 250g — A wildflower blend drawn from the Coromandel's rich native bush. Deep amber, naturally sweet, and full of character — this is what foraging in New Zealand tastes like.
Contents: 4 √ó 250g jars (1kg total)
Why this makes such a good gift
Not everyone is after a high-potency mānuka honey — and this box is a reminder that New Zealand produces so much more than that. Pōhutukawa honey in particular is something visitors and honey lovers alike rarely expect: it's uniquely New Zealand and genuinely hard to find outside the country. At $59.99, this is also one of the best-value NZ honey gifts you can give — four full-size 250g jars of raw Coromandel 309 honey, beautifully presented and ready to go.
Ideal for: New Zealand foodie gifts, honey lover gift sets, Coromandel souvenirs, Christmas gifts, corporate gifting, and anyone wanting to explore the full flavour range of NZ honey.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the MGO rating on mānuka honey mean?
MGO (methylglyoxal) is the naturally occurring compound that gives mānuka honey its distinctive properties, and its concentration is what determines the grade. A higher MGO number means a higher concentration and a more potent, intensely flavoured honey. All our honey is lab tested to verify the MGO rating on the label.
Is raw and unpasteurised honey safe to eat?
Yes. Raw, unpasteurised honey simply hasn't been heat-treated, so its natural enzymes, pollen and flavour stay intact. It's how honey has been eaten for thousands of years, and it's safe for most people — the only exception is children under 12 months old, for whom any honey isn't recommended due to the small risk of infant botulism.
Why has my honey crystallised, and is it still good?
Crystallisation is completely natural, especially in raw honey — it's a sign your honey hasn't been over-processed, not a sign it's gone off. If you prefer it runny, sit the jar in a bowl of warm (not boiling) water until it softens.
How much mānuka honey should I take, and when?
There's no strict rule — many people take a spoonful straight, stir it into warm water or lemon, or use it on toast. For a daily wellness routine, a teaspoon or two is a common amount.
Can babies or pregnant women eat mānuka honey?
Honey of any kind — including mānuka — should not be given to children under 12 months old, due to a small risk of infant botulism. If you're pregnant, breastfeeding, or have any health concerns, it's best to check with your healthcare provider before adding mānuka honey to your routine.
How should I store my honey?
Keep it in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight — there's no need to refrigerate it. Stored this way, raw honey lasts a very long time thanks to its natural low moisture and acidity.
