Let customers speak for us
from 164 reviewsI live in oklahoma and we have a winery that makes mead and it was pretty mid. I saw this product on Instagram and figured I'd give mead one more try and I'm glad I did. It is reasonably priced shipped fast and taste great looking forward to try more products.

this is great im thinking of doing your 3 month 190 sub, just know that i was very pleased with it. i wanted to try your viking box one that has 3 but its been sold out for a min but im a happy Marine so id say its still been great just ordered 4 more bottles the other day. thank you so much

It was delicious! Unique flavors blended perfectly. I love small family businesses, so it was a win, win for me.

So Amazing. My HB loved it!

Very pleased with this product. The taste is deliciously unique. I never tasted any like it. Plus I love supporting small businesses, so it's a win win for me!

I loved it. Very crisp and clean apple taste. I will be ordering it again.

Very beautiful and grateful for the wine glass.

Very happy with the quality of this product, stainless steel is a great idea for a wine glass

Sleeping Beauty Mead is incredible! The tropical guava flavor is bright and refreshing, with a perfect hint of acidity. The wildflower honey adds a smooth, rich depth that ties it all together beautifully. It’s a true delight—I enjoyed every sip!

This mead is a true testament to quality and craftsmanship. I can’t recommend it enough to anyone who loves a sweet, fruity mead that’s bursting with flavor.

Everything You Mead to Know
What is Mead?
Mead is alcohol made from honey, water & yeast. We focus on small batches with local honey & REAL fruit. We only ferment the honey (not the fruit) to ensure all alcohol is coming from honey.
YES, Vikings did drink mead.
How Do You Drink & Store Mead?
Mead can be enjoyed at 45 degrees (refrigerator temp) or served at room temp when it's not sparkling. You're welcome to mix spirits, ice or mixers - but we prefer it STRAIGHT.
To store your mead, we recommend keeping it in a cool, dry place, like a wine fridge, or a closet, where temperatures don't change and sunlight isn't hitting the bottle. Once opened mead is best enjoyed in 1-3 days, kept in fridge with bottle stopper, otherwise carbonation starts to slip out.
Otherwise like wine, mead can age, although we like to enjoy within a year.
How Does Shipping Work?
We ship to 42 states in the U.S. Alaska & Hawaii have higher shipping costs due to the voyage.
By law alcohol requires a signature of someone 21+. You can see our shipping policy here.
At this time we do not ship to CT, NJ, SD, UT, AR, MS, DE, AL.
