The store is an immersive, multi-channel experience that connects its customers to their rich brand story, educating you on the world of bees and honey!
“The immersive experience hosted by beekeeper and bee breeder Noelani Waters, takes customers on a journey through flavour, showcasing the influence the natural environment has on honey and how the senses interact to form a rich multisensory perception of flavour.”
“Centred around taste, the experiential store located in Auckland’s viaduct, incorporates a boutique 180-degree theatre which hosts premium tasting sessions designed in collaboration with Oxford University gastrophysicist Professor Charles Spence, known for his work with UK chef Heston Blumenthal.” For your 30 minute tasting experience book here.
“The physical lab was crafted using local materials and collaborating with local artisans to reflect Comvita’s New Zealand heritage, focus on wellbeing and expertise in unlocking natures secrets through science.
“The project is truly multichannel with the physical lab being enhanced through an augmented reality experience designed to educate customers on all things bees and transform the space into a forest using real world mapping technology.
“Customers can also visit the lab online via a 3D replica of the environment that has been built in a native New Zealand forest for customers to explore and browse.”
