We believe that producing a quality mead or wine of any variety is 90% art and 10% science. Toss in a bit of sweat and heartburn for good measure and you’ll have the Meadery. Making mead is a craft like many others, a true love of fine honey drives us to produce more than just any honey wine but the finest mead possible. Our desire to create something special from one of the most natural substances on earth.
More so than the ‘terroir’ for grape wine, the character of mead and ‘cyser’ comes directly from the honey itself. This ‘essence’ is derived from the type and quality of the floral sources in the region that the bees work. Our goal is to produce mead that reflects the character of the honey and in some cases augment it with complimentary things such as oak or fruit and spices.
If a mead is not good enough for us to drink or to offer to our friends, then we won’t sell it. If you would like to taste our wines, please call us and set up an appointment to visit. We’d love to have you over. If you ever have one of our meads and it is not up to par, simply call us and we will do everything we can to make you happy.
We do not make mead for the masses, instead we make mead for ourselves and our friends.
Mead – It’s not just for Vikings anymore!
Rabbit’s Foot Meadery was founded in 1995 by Michael and Maria Faul. After years of testing and research we released our first mead and have been growing ever since. We are one of the top two, largest, continuously operating mead producers in the United States of America.
If you can’t find our products in your local wine or beer shop, please ask them to carry us.
Thanks
