PURE TASMANIAN HONEY
🐝JUST AS THE BEES MADE IT.

Meet Wellington Apiary, a Tasmanian honey producer founded in 2009 by Antonia and Robin O’Brien in a garden in the heart of Hobart.

What started with a few backyard hives has grown to hives across Tasmania with one simple philosophy, let the honey reflect the incredible flora of Tasmania.

Their honey is:

RAW
COARSE FILTERED
UNHEATED
UNTREATED
ORGANICALLY PRODUCED

Wellington Apiary honey is never heated during extraction or bottling. Instead, it is cold extracted and coarsely filtered, helping retain the natural pollen, aromas and flavours of the honey. And you can taste it.

This is pure raw Tasmanian honey, full of the character of the landscape it comes from.

La Dame is a beautiful semi-matured goat’s milk cheese with plenty of character.

When young, La Dame has a rustic, flaky and open texture with a delicately ye**ty rind.

As it matures, it softens beautifully, both in flavour and texture, revealing a deeper savoury, nutty richness beneath its earthy aroma.

Think flaky, soft, savoury & nutty.

It’s a seriously lovely addition to a cheese board or super cheeky shaved over crisp gnocchi or roasted pumpkin.

A charcuterie board without cornichons just isn’t right........

On The Side Baby Cornichons are crisp, tangy and bathed in vinegar for the perfect bite between rich salami, silky prosciutto and creamy cheeses.

They’re the little ingredient that makes a grazing board feel complete.
