Corowa Whisky & Chocolate started in September of 2009, renovating this magical old flour as it had been abandoned since 1970. Since then the words Whisky and Chocolate have drawn the attention of many. A fine single malt and Belgium style chocolate, leaves us thinking that this really is the closest we will get to heaven on earth.
Our museum boasts a very good, clear story about the years leading toward Federation. It is suitable for school children and adults. We have sketches done by a local Aboriginal artist, Tommy McCrae, and we also have other links to artists which are displayed with Tom Roberts painting his wonderful 'Shearing the Rams' on a Corowa property and a Tasmanian convict artist, Constantini, who painted some wonderful oil paintings of one of our earliest families, the Martins, who built the Royal Hotel at Corowa.

The Paradise Queen was constructed by Eildon Engineering in Eildon, Victoria in 1986
She was transported to Yarrawonga in two parts where the final piece of construction took place and she was put into service on Lake Mulwala in the same year
She was designed for her current purpose as a cruise boat to service the locals and the tourism trade on Lake Mulwala and upstream of the lake on the Murray River
The vessel floats on two twenty metre pontoons (3mm steel), each pontoon has 10 separate air tight compartments
A design feature of the vessel is protective underwater bars at the front of the vessel to protect the hull from floating, fallen timber which does occur from time to time in the lake
The Paradise Queen is powered by two Eighty Five Horse Power Caterpillar Diesel Engines
The Paradise Queen has earned the moniker as an 'Icon' of Lake Mulwala pushing off from the banks of the lake around five hundred times a year on her various voyages.
