部分原文报道如下:
New Zealand mānuka honey is produced by bees collecting nectar from the mānuka plant (Leptospermum scoparium)。
Mānuka plants can be found growing throughout New Zealand.The Ministry for Primary Industries (MPI) has developed a robust and sophisticated scientific definition that can be used to authenticate whether or not a particular honey is New Zealand mānuka honey. The science definition is essential to maintain New Zealand's premium position in overseas markets and for the continued growth of our export honey industry.
