This is a very special, limited edition mead, made from 100% Irish wildflower honey from summer 2025 from The Chanting Bee Apiary in West Cork. This honey is a lovely expression of the aromas and flavours of West Cork. It will transport you to our local countryside with one sip. Our honeybees roam and forage the hedgerows and orchards, pollinating and collecting nectar from hawthorn blossom, white blackberry blossom, clover and holly.
Now sold out in the meadery. Have a look at our Wildflower Irish Mead is made using Paul’s honey. It’s wonderful!
We sourced the honey from beekeeper, Paul Kelly (of the Kelly Family) last August. This new release was matured over the winter in the meadery. The nectar sources blossom at different times and in different quantities and the resultant honey has a complexity of flavours, subtly different year to year. In summer 2025, the hawthorn blossom was magnificent.
Tasting Notes: This year’s elegant mead tastes predominantly of the hawthorn nectar with subtle blackberry blossom, notes of elderflower, pear and a hint of mint from the holly. Wonderfully delicious and finished semi-sweet 11% ABV.
Serve: Pale gold in colour, delicate in its finish, it is best served on its own lightly chilled allowing the soft honeyed notes to linger.
Awards: European MMC Bronze medal 2026!

Kinsale Mead Company has done an excellent job of redefining mead for our age, and showing that it can hold its own as an alternative to chilled wine…a treat worth tracking down (Aoife Carrigy, Irish Independent)
This Irish Wildflower is something else. I find the taste to be lovely and very much of honey. I feel as though I could drink the Irish Wildflower like water. That’s why I’m buying more bottles and I wrote this to ask you to please make more like this one. Here’s hoping you expand and strengthen the Irish Honey industry and all that comes with it. Support Irish Business and Support Irish Bees. Can’t get much better. (John B)
Great Irish Meads, highly recommend trying if you’ve never had Mead before, the Irish Wildflower Mead is fantastic, beautifully sweet with floral flavours (Gaelan M)
Wildflower Mead is just like you are drinking flowers dipped in honey. Magnificent endeavour. I must confess I’m in love with these meads of yours. I will highly recommend it to all my friends as a mild refreshing drink. (Lina M)
This semi-sweet mead shines with food such as Feta-style goat’s cheese, honeyed baklava, a smooth crème brulée or baked New York cheesecake or just for after dinner sipping.

Store the bottles similar to wine, upright in a cool place away from direct sunlight and they should keep for at least two years. Once opened, store the bottles upright in the fridge. If you have one of those vacuum pump wine bottle closures that pump out the oxygen, all the better. After that the flavour starts to change a little as the air gets to it. Good to drink still or use in cocktails or cooking.
The Wildflower Mead keeps longer than the others as it’s semi-sweet. Up to 4 weeks if there’s any left by then.
