MĀNOA HONEY & MEAD

"As the other reviews mention, you're in the right place - don't turn around! It's a little gem tucked away, but you won't regret coming here. My husband and I had never tried mead before but we are new converts!! Seriously yum. We shared a tasting and came away feeling like this was our new drink! The honeys was also delicious. We can't wait to see what they come up with next!"

"We are here in Hawaii for our honeymoon and were up visiting the Dole Pineapple Plantation and saw your mead in their giftshop. My husband makes his own mead so we looked up your location and were thrilled in was just 8 minutes down the road. Decided to stop by for a quick tasting and LOVED it. Jordan was so knowledgeable and wonderful with explaining tye history of your honey production and transition into mead. We went with the "in bloom tasting" and I'm so glad we did. Everything we tried was delicious and all very different flavor profiles. So glad we are here for the new Yuzu Blanc because it is unlike anything ice ever tried. We got a bottle and will hopefully get back up that way before we head home."

"You need to visit Manoa Honey and Mead before they find new digs this place is unique. My wife found Manoa Honey & Mead after visiting the Old Sugar Mill on the internet. Google directions said it was 18 minutes away so we headed that way. The description on the internet said it was in a neighborhood and as we drove there, it was a neighborhood/ light industry but don’t fret it’s well worth it. And not a bad area just a neighborhood. They have 4 tables 4 parking spots. We were lucky that there was spot to park but I’ll say this after visiting I will find a spot to park even if it’s a few blocks away. They have two tasting one is the Sparkling Mead and one is the Still Mead. We tried them both and the pour is two ounces so we were able to taste each one. It’s well worth a visit to learn about mead. I’ve had mead before but Manoa Honey & Mead was so far superior to what I had. So this should be on your list to visit. One more thing was the honey and cheese plate was very delicious highly recommended. A honey comb was served and spreading it over the top of a hard goat cheese on a cracker was delicious."

"Absolutely love this place. You have to try the witch doctor! The staff are super friendly and you can even try some local goat cheese from the sweet lands farm. Definitely worth the buy. I love that the area, while it doesn't look superb, is super relaxing and I would definitely say go and try some samples to figure out what your desired flavors may best"

"Such a cute little place! 3 dedicated parking spots and a little patio area with umbrellas, wine barrels, and stool seating. Nice music and string lights. Industrial area. A cute indoor space with the mead and honey displayed with self serve honey tasting. The outdoor mead tasting is where it’s at! Amazing tasting menu, great flavors, a little bits (honey, cheese, cracker plate). Really enjoyed the pineapple sour. Will definitely come back and bring friends. Fun outing. There are some flies but nothing a napkin over your glass can’t fix."
