The free honey tasting bar is really cool. Also did the mead tasting and was very impressed with the quality. Not as sweet as you might expect. Probably closer to white wine than an ice wine.

Helpful staff. Large selection of product in store made locally. Mead tasting was a first for me and glad I did. Wonderful product, can’t wait to create cocktails at home!

Their honey shop offers the widest selection of types of honey I have tasted. They also have taste samples. I really like their buckweat honey and cinnamon honey. I highly recommend this place, especially with young children.

We learned all about bees and had a great time trying to find the queen bee, my husband and I tasted their mead and ended up buying some. Nice selection of unique gifts and there is a sanitary honey tasting bar. Was a great visit and will be returning.

The teller was very helpful in explaining the process of making the various products they sell. I tried some of the beverages and made two purchases.

Best to drive to this. It's a bit of a long walk from downtown. Worth the effort as they have knowledgeable staff, free samples of honey and mead and even a hive you can look at.

It was fun to see the live bee hives and be educated on the importance of bees to the food chain Lovely gardens to walk through. There are guided or self guided tours to enjoy. Shopping for bee made goods is a plus. A nice visit with the kids

This is a very educational shop for all things about bees; they have very informative display to give kids and adults alike an in-depth insight about bee-keeping; they carry all sorts of bee-products, such as raw honey, bee pollen, bee propolis, healing honey, mead, etc. Bella Vista Road is also a scenic drive up the mountain.

We spent a good 2 hours here and enjoyed every minute. While my child learned all about bees and had a great time trying to find the queen bee, my husband and I tasted their mead and ended up buying 2 bottles. The raspberry honey mead was drunk that night and we regret we didn’t get a 2nd bottle. Great selection of unique gifts and there is a sanitary honey tasting bar. Was a very enjoyable visit and will definitely be returning.
