Active Jellybush Honey ULF 15+ 500g

Jelly bush trees belong to the Leptospermum group of plants, with over 85 known species and 83 of these are found growing within Australia.

Commonly referred to as Jelly bush or Tea tree, the genus Leptospermum is widely distributed and occupies a variety of habitats from coastal dunes to high mountain areas.

The Active Jellybush Honey or Leptospermum honey we collect comes from the pristine sub tropical coastal forests surrounding Byron Bay on the East Coast of Australia. Like Manuka, its New Zealand relative, the activity and strength varies with the locality in which it is found. The strongest medicinal honey is found in North Eastern NSW.

We specialize in harvesting different types of Jellybush Honey all of which are tested at certified laboratories to guarantee that the active properties are present before packaging.

Leptospermum or Jellybush plants are known to produce a unique type of honey that not only has hydrogen peroxide releasing enzymes but also a special phytochemical property called the Unique Leptospermum Factor - ULF not found in other honeys.

The common name ‘tea tree’ is also given to another Australian group of trees from the Melaleuca genus. It is from Melaleuca plants that the well known tea tree oil is produced. This group of trees, the Melaleucas, have no relation to the Jellybush or Leptospermum group of plants which produce the Active Jelly Bush Honey.
