Based in Perthshire, Scotland. We try to make light, modern mead with flavours inspired by archaeological finds in Northern Europe. The Rookery looks to evidence in the historical and archæological record for source material, then back-engineers these ancient drinks to create modern and exciting products.
At the Rookery, the fermentable in all our recipes is honey and we never use sugars or syrups. All the flavourings are high-quality ingredients and never artificial flavourings. Most of our meads use hand-foraged ingredients, concentrating on Scottish native species such as meadwort, heather, silver birch sap, crab-apples and a range of hedgerow berries.
