As you can imagine, considering we haven't even launched the new products yet we are over the moon to be given this recognition of our success so far and we can't wait for the awards results...fingers crossed!
The Great British Food Awards were launched in 2014 to celebrate the country's finest artisanal produce, as well as the hard-working people behind the scenes. This year, the awards are bigger and better than ever, with lots of new categories and amazing celebrity judges with the likes of Raymond Blanc, Michel Roux Jr, and Shaun Rankin.
Thanks to everyone who has helped and supported us so far on our journey. Even though the limited edition meads have not yet been released we will be giving the opportunity for 5 individuals and 5 businesses to try the new small-batch products before sale by entering The Hive Club.

The Great Taste Golden Fork for the best food or drink from Wales was presented to our “really impressive” 13% ABV Heather Mead. “Smooth and easy to drink with lovely honey tones”, this mead is “crisp, balanced and rounded with an almost sherry-like dryness on the finish”, making it the ideal partner for cheese.
