The Forgotten Coast is known for its Tupelo Honey, and now there’s a new way to experience it in Downtown Apalachicola! Apalachicola Bee Company recently opened its doors in a bright and sunny space with a garden courtyard as a bee tasting bar with honey, honey mead, local craft beer, wines, and champagne.
A new business model for the area, Apalachicola Bee Company was inspired from a small honey display in a local boutique of Bee Wild Honeys that were flying off the shelves. The shop owners wanted to figure out what the er, buzz, was about so they reached out to Bee Wild Honeys and were inspired by this local honey farm, a family-owned business that has been perfecting and producing Tupelo Honey for 25 years.
The idea for Apalachicola Bee Company was born, and both locals and visitors can’t get enough! Enjoy daily honey and honey mead tastings, flights of mead, Oyster City Beer and mimosas on draft while learning more about the varieties of honey and its production from knowledgeable and friendly “bee-tenders.” Apalachicola Bee Company serves both local honey as well as honeys and meads from around the world. Bottles of honey and mead along with bee apparel and boutique gifts are also available for purchase.
Apalachicola Bee Company is located at 16 Avenue E, and open Tuesday through Thursday from 11AM to 5PM, and Friday and Saturday from 11AM to 7PM. Follow their Facebook page HERE or click below to visit their website.
