Mead is one of the world’s oldest alcoholic drinks, traditionally made by fermenting honey, water, and yeast. Often referred to as honey wine, mead has been enjoyed by cultures across the globe for thousands of years. Unlike beer or wine, which are made from grains or grapes, mead uses 100% natural honey as its primary fermentable ingredient, giving it a uniquely smooth, floral sweetness. It can be crafted in a variety of styles from dry to sweet, still to sparkling, and even aged in barrels for added depth. Today, mead is enjoying a revival as a versatile, naturally made drink that celebrates the pure, delicate flavours of real honey. Our mead is made authentically using 100% honey.

Rum Barrel-Aged Traditional Mead

the barrel-aging process.
By aging mead in barrels that previously held whiskey, the mead absorbs the deep, smoky notes and subtle vanilla undertones left by the spirit, creating a harmonious blend of flavours.
The porous nature of the wood allows the mead to interact with the remnants of the whiskey, gradually infusing it with a warm, oaky character. This process enhances the mead's depth, adding layers of complexity that complement its natural sweetness. The result is a unique beverage that combines the smoothness of mead with the bold, robust flavors of whiskey, offering a sophisticated drinking experience.
