Description
Healthberry Farm and Honey River Meadery

Producers of varietal raw honey, unsulfited meads and beeswax products.

At Healthberry Farm, we believe in the importance of working with nature to produce the finest products possible. Our varietal honeys are raw and come to you straight from the hive, without pasteurization or processing. Honey River meads are aged for two years so they can be bottled without sulfites. Our salves and candles are made with simple ingredients that are good for your body and the air you breathe. We do not add any chemicals, preservatives, colors or additives to any of our products, as they are unnecessary and often harmful.

We are located in the heart of the Highlands of West Virginia, surrounded by the Monongahela National Forest. Healthberry bees forage on plants in a wild setting, a safe distance from sources of toxic contamination, and are never moved for pollination services. Our practices give you an opportunity to support eco-friendly, small-scale farming while treating yourself to delicious varietal honey products made by healthy, happy bees.

Tiny bottle that Marko brought along, had this in the company of Jonas, Ursula and Marko Saturday 8th February 2025 at home, Manglham cooking Lasagna later and listening to ByteFM. Loz has made three different types of bread and a Gooseberry Crumble Cake. Pours a hazy yellow gold without a head. Quite a tangy and citrussy mead, the honey is there but nice, it's good but not totally my thing.

A small chilli sauce bottle shared with Marko, thanks! Unclear amber. Aroma is honey brandy with fruit, hints of ripe strawberry and shoe polish. Boozy and alcoholic. Flavour is honey, lime, blueberry, white grapes, nice sourness. Some sweetness in the finish.

TIny bottle, huge thanks Buckeyeboy! Shared with Hrabren. Misty orange body. Honeyish minty aroma, huge peppermint, some alcohol, but pretty toothpaste-like. Lean, very dry blueberry-driven taste with lightly waxy honey undertones. Fresh dry, astringent blueberry tea really in many ways, but there's honey and some warmth. Nice!

Refrigerated 75 cL clear bottle poured into a glass. Clear golden. Aroma is dry honey and medium body. Taste is dry honey, alcohol, and a little peach. Too dry and for $25 a bottle not worth trying.

Bottle at the RateBeer DC Cider tasting. Poured a slightly hazy light yellow color. Aroma was honey, light floral character. Flavor was semi-sweet, boozy floral honey notes.
