Since September 2009, the company known as Corowa Whisky and Chocolate has been open for business and it is gratifying to see visitor numbers increasing. A confectionary sales area has been established in the main brick building where visitors can gaze at the 20 metre high roof surrounded by walls that are solid brick and half a metre thick. A cafe and coffee shop serving the finest beverages, Devonshire tea, and light meals is through the first door. The original engine room, that once housed a huge electric motor, is now a place where kids and adults alike can make chocolate freckles. You are invited to come and experience the old flour mill, taste and purchase the famous chocolate and licorice range. Check out plans and aspirations for whisky or just come and relax and enjoy the ambience and feel of an essential part of Corowa's history.
