Silver Hand Meadery is a local producer of mead, also known as honey wine, in the Williamsburg area. Mead is one of the most historic fermented drinks found on Earth with the creativity of craft beer and the elegance of wine. It is created by fermenting sugars found in honey with additional herbs, spices, and fruits added to create unique flavors. Our meads typically have an ABV of 11% to 14% and range from dry to sweet, with beautiful clarity and color. Since mead is mostly an unfamiliar drink, we offer tasting experiences of the different varietals of honey we use ranging from Orange Blossom to Star Thistle and more.

Honey and apple nose. Clear amber, still. Honey, sweet, slightly savory, grape, cardamom. Medium body, smooth, very warm. Spicing is subtle, thankfully. Fig addition is there but not distinct. I had hoped for a more obvious fig presence, but this is a lovely mead.
