Overall, the healthiest type of honey is raw, unprocessed honey, as there are no additives or preservatives.
Most pasteurized honey tastes the same, so look for raw, unfiltered honey. It's the best way to experience its true flavor and health benefits, and it also keeps you from accidentally buying fake honey. Remember, quality honey, crystallizes eventually.

Manuka honey is more expensive than most other honey because it is rare and only produced in Australia and New Zealand. The flowers the bees collect the nectar from, to make Manuka honey are from the Leptospermum family, which is native to Australia. Farming Manuka honey costs more to produce than other honeys.
