Delightful afternoon activity
Our tour group decided to visit Kinsale Mead Co as a last minute add on, and I’m so happy we did! Our mead guide was very knowledgeable and funny. We got to taste the best honey I’ve ever had and, of course, delicious mead. It was a delightful afternoon, and a fun way to learn some Irish history.
Fascinating!
We took the one hour tour and it was fascinating to hear about the ancient history and folklore surrounding mead, then to see how Kinsale Mead is produced. Heart and soul go into it with this small team and the meads are super tasty too!
Great family experience.
Wonderful experience right there just above Kinsale. Cara, our host, led us through the history of mead making in Ireland, how it was forgotten, and how it may Make a comeback in Ireland. All while seeing how it’s made and the opportunity to sample and take some home. Thank you, Cara.
Tour and tasting
Excellent, very informative and friendly, plus a good product to taste
Excellent tour of a one of a kind mead distillery
This was such a fun tour. We heard the history of mead, taste tested some delicious honeys, and saw how they make mead. At the end we tasted several different meads, which were delicious! It was great way to spend some time, and the only place making mead in Ireland!
