The Origin of ANUK
At ANUK, a name stands for a story that goes deeper – a name that honors our connection to the extraordinary landscapes of New Zealand and our commitment to true quality. As we embark on a new journey, our roots and values remain deeply anchored in the pure nature that makes our Manuka honey so special.
Our honey now bears the name ANUK. Yet, while our name has changed, our promise remains the same: We are still committed to your high standards and offer you the finest honey that nature can provide. We value your trust and are excited to have you with us on this thrilling new path.
A Magic Moment
It all started in September 2013 in a small New York studio apartment. We just returned from a long trip from Chiang Mai, Thailand. Autumn had announced itself, the afternoon sun hung low over the East Village, bathing 1st Street and 1st Avenue in a warm glow. With luggage in hand and a large trekking backpack on our backs, we entered our friend Shawn’s apartment – and stopped in surprise in the doorway. Amazing things were happening before our eyes: the sun was shining through the windows, illuminating a large, crystal glass jar that stood on the kitchen table and enveloped the entire room in a luminous, golden-yellow pattern. What was in that jar?
An exceptional gift
On the trail of honey
The origin
Over the work of several seasons, we built a network of beekeepers in New Zealand. When my good friend, Bennet, joined the business idea, the venture ANUK Honey was born, which specializes in the selection of Manuka honey
We purchase the honey directly, take care of all aspects of transportation, and distribute this honey under our brand ANUK Honey. We always want to be able to trace where our honey comes from. Only in this way are we able to vouch for quality with confidence and live up to the promise of Pure Raw Honey and Manuka.
