Mead Making Workshop

Mead, one of the oldest fermented beverages, has a long history in Appalachia, brought over by European settlers who crafted it using local honey and wild-foraged ingredients. While not as common as whiskey or cider, mead was a practical drink in mountain communities, where honey was more accessible than refined sugar. Appalachian mead-makers often infused their brews with herbs, berries, and roots, creating unique flavors tied to the land. Today, the tradition is seeing a revival as local beekeepers and craft brewers embrace this ancient drink once again.
