Roger, you need to tell everyone about the amazingly strict customs
control on imported honey. I was in your lovely country about eight
years ago, and was just amazed at how worried they were at the
airport. I think one could have brought in guns, drugs, and nuclear
weapons more easily than a jar of imported honey!
I assume all that is to protect that fine Manuka variety . . .

Your right about the customs. As we're a mainly an agricultural based
economy the big fear is that one day something disastrous like foot and
mouth could get through. Recently the honey industry in the north
island has been hard hit by the Varoa Mite which must have slipped
through somehow. Lets hope it's impact wont cause too many problems in
the manufacture of Manuka honey.
Cheers, Roger B
