I took the Honeybound Meadery tour over the weekend tour and it was such a lovely time! Pick-up and drop-off went so smoothly, everyone was very friendly and welcoming and the mead and charcuterie were delicious. Would certainly take another tour with this company.
The Flats and I enjoyed our Mead Tasting and Tour. Quite an interesting place and people. Cheers!
