Our Products 

Picture
​Manuka Essence produces a range of body care and healing products that are made from fresh, vital, natural ingredients. We love our weeds, they are the hidden healing secrets in every garden!

Our range is based on wild-gathered Manuka Essence, which is grown and distilled in the beautiful mountains behind Golden Bay- where the air is clear and the water pure. 
Our products are made by hand, combining Manuka essence with carefully selected herbal oils to provide targeted healing that works in harmony with your body. We grow many of our own ingredients using organic principles, to ensure the highest level of freshness and efficacy for our products. 
We select our packaging with care to support a sustainable planet and minimise our footprint as much as possible. Here at Manuka Essence, we are strong believers in recycling and reusing.
