Mead is an alcoholic drink made from honey, water and yeast. Mead-making pre-dates beer and wine making, having origins dating back 8,000 years. Mead was considered a sacred drink in many early cultures. The drink of Celebrations since the Renaissance!

 

Just like traditional grape wines, there are many styles or types of mead. Not all wines taste alike (that would be very boring!) All meads are not the same. Meads can be very dry and robust or sweet and refreshing. Find one to suit your taste and the join the celebration!

 

At White Winter Winery, our meads are made sustainably using local fruits and honey.  

 

 

The term Honeymoon comes from the tradition of giving the newlywed couple a “moon’s” supply of mead to insure a fruitful union. Sweet Mead was especially prized for the honeymoon because it was believed that the “sweeter” the Mead the more “fruitful” the union.
