The Birthplace of Mānoa Honey & Mead: Inside Our Wahiawa Honey House
Updated: Aug 21
Tucked away in the historic agricultural town of Wahiawa in central Oʻahu, our flagship Honey House and Meadery is where every single drop of our artisan honey and mead is crafted with aloha.
Whether you are looking for a unique stop on your drive to the North Shore, searching for pure Hawaiian honey gifts, or eager to sample modern sparkling mead, our factory location offers a welcoming glimpse into the art of island beekeeping.
1. Free Honey Samples at our Wahiawa Honey House
Step inside our bright, cozy Wahiawa Honey House to explore our full collection of raw, Hawaiian honeys. Because our bees harvest nectar from diverse microclimates across Oʻahu, each jar carries a distinct floral profile, from sweet and creamy White Kiawe, delicate and floral ʻŌhiʻa Lehua (endemic to Hawai'i), nutty comfort in Macadamia Honey, to our bold and rich mixed-blossom Pele's Gold honey.
In addition to our signature raw honeys, you will find honeycomb, infusion honey varieties including cacao nibs or rum barrel-aged, and natural wellness products made directly from the hive. Visitors can enjoy complimentary honey samples while browsing for locally made island gifts.
2. Outdoor Mead Garden & Tasting Flights
On weekends, Friday through Sunday, our breezy Mead Garden opens up for curated tasting flights. Made by fermenting our Hawaiian honey with local fruits and botanicals, mead is the oldest known alcoholic beverage, and our modern take ranges from crisp, sparkling pours to complex still ferments.
Guests 21 and older can select a six-set tasting featuring our flagship releases or our limited and seasonal releases. The space is relaxed and casual, an environment to sit back and sip truly authentic local craftsmanship. Walk-ins are welcome, but if you're a planner, reservations are available to guarantee seating for you and your group.
3. Educational Tours & "Bees to Mead" Experiences
For visitors interested in going beyond the glass, our immersive guided experiences break down the journey from hive to bottle.

Compared four indoor places in the east last week on price per hour. PLAYON isn't the cheapest but it's the only one where the ticket covers every zone. Numbers are public at playon.com.sg/pricing.
Spider Solitaire 2 Suits is a card puzzle where thoughtful planning can make a major difference. Although the basic objective is straightforward, successfully clearing the tableau requires players to understand how individual moves affect the cards that come afterward.
Love the story behind the Honey House and its craft. For preserving recipes and production notes, converting handwritten notes to text can make old records much easier to organize.
It is great to hear that Setoka season has started at JA Kochi! These oranges are famous for their sweetness. While waiting for my order to arrive, I have been enjoying a 麻雀無料ゲーム to relax. Nothing beats local seasonal fruit and a good game to unwind.
Me llamó la atención conocer qué significan los números dentro de diferentes tradiciones. Una explicación con algo de contexto hace que el tema sea mucho más interesante, porque permite entender de dónde surgen determinadas asociaciones y por qué algunas personas sienten tanta curiosidad por ellas.
