Wye Valley Traditional Mead (Golden Fork Winner 2023)
Here is our 2023 3 Star Great Taste Award winning special edition Wye Valley Meadery Traditional Mead. From the hills, meadows, hedgerows and woodlands of the Wye Valley. A celebration of the years harvest in a bottle. We use three honey from 3 regions of the Wye Valley to create a balanced mead, medium sweet and bursting with the flavour of pure honey.
14.5% ABV
How to enjoy:
Delicious on it's own: (chilled, with ice or room temperature are all great!)
Paired with cheese or dessert: The sweetness of the mead contrasts wonderfully with a salty or blue cheese.
As a spritz: A super simple yet delicious cocktail. Mead and Tonic 50/50, squeeze of lime juice, and garnished with Rosemary (of course)
As a cocktail mixer: Want to add a dash of sweetness to any cocktail? Replace any simple syrups with mead for a delicious honey twist.

Judging Notes:
"A full on floral blossom honey aroma. A lovely complexity to this mead - well balanced throughout with woody and toasted notes and a soft sweetness rolling in to a soft lemony acidity with a long finish. Altogether beautifully crafted and thoroughly enjoyable."
"A delightful, promising nose with a heady, blossomed fragrance to this gorgeous pale yellow mead. Softly sweet and nuanced, rounded and complex and deeply floral. The combination of flowers bring a characterful honeyed richness. Smooth and silken on the palate with lingering floral notes on the finish. A really delightful and delicious mead with both fragrance and floral complexity."

about the wye valley.
The Wye Valley in the borders of Wales and England, renowned for its natural beauty, provides an ideal environment for beekeeping, with its lush woodlands, sheltered meadows, and abundant wildflowers.
We focus on sustainable practices, ensuring the health and vitality of our bee colonies while producing high-quality honey products. The area's rich biodiversity supports a variety of bee species, contributing to the overall ecological balance.
It's a light refreshing drink, I've only had a couple of meads before and they're all from Denmark and to find one from so close to home was a delight.
I thoroughly recommend it. Customer service was top-notch and the drink was great, hard to get any better than that. I shall be ordering it again.
I have bought this because of its pedigree, to offer to guests who visit me. I do not offer any other alcoholic drinks.
Absolutely fantastic
A perfect gift
Tastes what you want mead to taste like, best I've had by a mile
did you know, a beehive can produce 60kg of honey per year?
did you know that one bee only produces 1/12 of a teaspoon of honey in their whole life!
did you know that one hive can contain over 60,000 bees?
