Have you tasted mead from Honeygirl Meadery?

Tej
An Ethiopian honey wine fermented with gesho (a woody shrub) rather than hops or standard yeast.
Competition
Focused heavily on medalling in competitions to validate the quality of their mead.
Terroir-Driven
Focuses on regionality and expression of place; using only honey, water, and adjuncts sourced from a specific geographic radius. Emphasizes single-region honey sourcing, minimal blending across regions, restraint in adjuncts that override origin, and emphasis on floral and environmental expression.
Hyper-Local
Sources honey within a very tight radius of where the mead is produced and consumed.
Wild Fermented Mead
Mead fermented using non-commercial yeast strains from the environment or raw materials.
Sustainability-Focused
Prioritizes organic honey, sustainable beekeeping practices, and minimal-intervention production.
Fireweed
Light, silky, tea-like floral sweetness, very clean finish
Thyme
Intense herbal spice, savory notes, slightly medicinal finish
Wildflower
Variable floral complexity, unpredictable balance of herbal, fruity, and earthy notes depending on season and region
