Stop 01 · The Coast
Seaside Honey
Salt air, coastal wetlands and sunlit afternoons.
Along the coastal edges of South East Queensland, wetlands stretch between the dunes and the treeline. Melaleucas line the creek banks, their white bark peeling in the sea breeze. The bees move between coastal gums and paperbark blossoms, and the honey carries that same easy, sunlit character.
- Colour
- Medium to dark amber
- Flora
- Coastal gums, melaleuca, salt-tolerant eucalypts
- Flavour
- Rich and earthy, warm butterscotch, a hint of salt, a long caramel finish
- Best with
- Cheese boards, yoghurt, marinades, roasted vegetables
The beekeeper
Our Seaside Honey comes from an independent beekeeper at the forefront of varroa mite research in Australia. Her commitment to bee health shapes the care she brings to every harvest.
“Amazed at the difference. This honey is something else.”

Stop 02 · The Hinterland
Hinterland Honey
Fertile valleys, wildflowers and the Glass House Mountains.

Stop 03 · The Country

Ancient eucalyptus forests and wide open country.
Move inland and the landscape opens up. The trees grow taller and older: ironbark, box, grey gum. In the gullies the canopy closes overhead; elsewhere the country runs wide and flat under a vast Queensland sky.
- Colour
- Medium to dark amber
- Flora
- Ironbark, box, grey gum, native bush wildflowers
- Flavour
- Bold and earthy, full eucalyptus character, a long warm finish
- Best with

The beekeeper
Country Honey is harvested by John, a long-time beekeeping partner and mentor, who follows the bloom through Condamine, Texas and Miles.
“The best raw honey. Great customer service and fast delivery.”

Eucalyptus honey
Most of the world's honey is clover or acacia. Eucalyptus honey exists almost nowhere outside Australia. The depth, the warmth, the earthiness under the sweetness. That is what the inland gives.

Stop 04 · The City
Brisbane Honey
A leafy city alive with subtropical blooms.
Brisbane is one of the greenest cities in Australia. Jacarandas turn the streets purple every November, and bottlebrush, grevillea and lilly pilly fill the gardens. Most urban honey comes from a handful of plants. Brisbane honey comes from hundreds.
- Colour
- Light to medium amber
- Flora
- Flowering gums, bottlebrush, grevillea, lilly pilly, garden blossoms
- Flavour
- Smooth and bright, lightly floral and herbaceous, with a clean finish
- Best with
- Tea, fruit, toast, yoghurt
