Description
Meadery owners John and Barbara Kennen raise bees adjacent to the wildlife refuge of Sutton Lake. Our honey crop comes primarily from West Virginia hardwoods (basswood, sourwood, poplar, maple, fruit trees.) From this nectar we produce mead or honey wine. Honey with our fruit and berries makes our melomels.

We specialize in organically grown fruits (i.e. rasberries, blueberries, peaches, apples, apricots), which are pollinated by our own bees. We also have a wide variety of honey and honey products.

750ml bottle pours a clear... pale blue with a clump of white head. Nose has candy, a little candied fruit, honey. Flavor is quite sweet, almost cotton candy like, mild berry, golden raisin, dripping honey. Sounds like it would be overly sweet, but it isn’t.
