A pioneering Tasmanian beekeeping family turns a hobby into a household name.

Nicola, Robbie, Ella and Thomas Charles are part of a honey business in Tasmania that goes back to 1955."Right now it's beautiful. In the heart of the Tarkine when the leatherwood is flowing, it's unlike any other honey you'll ever see in the world," Ms Charles said.

Ms Charles said this season, because of the drier weather conditions, certain trees were flowering for the first time in 20 years. "Trees have their own life cycle. Some might have six- or seven-year cycles. The opportunity for trees to yield nectar in Tasmania is dependent on very dry harsh conditions, particularly with eucalypts."

"We've decided to do more domestic marketing. It's more of a risk management strategy for us; we felt too heavily weighted in exports," she said.
