113 reviewsAbout
In this unique workshop, you will learn the intricate art of mead tasting while immersing yourself in the beauty of stargazing. Discover the history and flavours of different types of mead, and uncover the magic of the night sky.
They are the only meadery in the Hunter Valley and possibly the only stargazing experience.
If you're unfamiliar with mead, it is similar to wine but made from fermented honey instead of grapes.
The first 50 minutes or so will be guided by the mead maker in tasting from a paddle board of our top 6 most popular mead flavours. You will have the opportunity to buy any mead if you wish.
Following the mead tasting, you will spend the remaining time being guided in the use of the telescope to see what points of interest are visible that night.
Join them for this unforgettable activity and unlock a new world of flavour and beauty.

Amazing experience at Honey Wines Australia! Martin was a fantastic host - super friendly and really knows his stuff about mead and honey production. The tasting was great, and you can tell how passionate he is about what he does. It's only an hour from Newcastle and totally worth the drive. The meads are all small-batch and locally made, which makes it special. It's something different from your typical wine tasting - we loved it! Highly recommend if you're looking for a unique afternoon out! ⭐ ⭐⭐ ⭐⭐

Had such a wonderful experience at Honey Wines Australia! If you’re looking to change up from your regular wine tastings in the Hunter Valley - this is it 🤩 Thank you to Martin who was so friendly, passionate and knowledgeable about his craft. Fantastic mead, and the honey was incredible - the cinnamon flavoured honey is to die for! Highly recommend 🐝🍯

The best mead I've ever tasted, and very well priced! Martin is a lovely guy and passionate about his product, and we really enjoyed the experience visiting his meadery in Broke. Even if you can't make it there in person, be sure to order from his website - you won't be disappointed!

Had an awesome time at Honey Wines Meadery, tasting every flavour of mead and honey available, and chatting about beekeeping. Martin is very personable, welcoming, and has a wealth of knowledge about bees and mead. Highly recommend this unique experience in the Hunter region!

We had a great time doing a mead and honey tasting with Martin! He is super knowledgeable, explains a lot about the brewing process, the different flavors and bee keeping. The mead is delicious and it's a nice add-on that you can choose a bottle to take home. Definitely recommend, great experience in the Hunter Valley!
