Melita Honey Farm

Tasmania


Get your fingers sticky while enjoying free tastings of the 50-plus different types of honey on sale at this shop in Chudleigh, 6.6km east of Mole Creek. Be sure to sample a cone of honey ice cream – the blue gum has a mild flavour and the leatherwood is stronger. Also sells honey-based skincare and other bee-related products.
