Described herein are novel isolated compounds from Leptospermum honey and methods of assay thereof for use in the verification of the place of origin, authenticity and content of Leptospermum honeys such as mānuka honey. The inventors screened flower nectar and honeys of various floral types found in New Zealand to identify chemicals that were either unique to or in significantly higher concentrations in mānuka nectar and mono-floral mānuka honey compared to other predominantly mono-floral nectars and honeys. As a result of the screening exercise, the inventors discovered a marker compounds that could distinguish Leptospermum honey nectar and honey from other floral sources.
