But as I understand it, the article referred to by the OP, is old news. It was published here about 3 or 4 years ago and caused a rush on the limited amount of buckwheat honey available here.
since then, it seems that it was just convenient that the original author of the article chose buckwheat and it would seem that any honey works as well.
As for the Manuka effect, well I don't really know if there's been any proper study or research done, all I know is that depending on how strong the manuka element is, affects the price greatly. Whether it's a "wonder honey" thing or just the various limited amounts of each one that's available causing the cost to be high, is more to the point......
