If you like history, drink and great hosts this place is I highly recommend. Learned about mead in Ireland and how they process and sell it today. Had a great time.

Very informative! Great Mead! Very friendly staff! All around a great experience! Would recommend to anyone whose stopping in kinsale!

I love seeing behind the scenes and learning about processes and history and have experienced all that today. We also really enjoyed learning all history and things about mead and honey and trying different meads. All art around the place was also very nice to look at, one hint - I would love to see front room with bar painted black, think all mead bottles and art would stand out more with dark background! All together very interesting and enjoyable, well done on great business with culture background.

Kate was a terrific teacher of the areas bees, honey and the making of Mead. Such an informative tour and so much fun. I would go back.

Excellent tour, even better mead. Wonderful array of flavors, all were well made balanced and good drinking. Not your next door neighbor's mead! Pro tip, get a taxi to the address, it’s not an easy walk from town center, significant climb up a steep hill. Taxi to Lidl grocery store and Kinsale Mead Co. is right behind it.

Great tour! Lots of information about the history of Mead in Ireland! Good way to learn about the process of making mead. The mead tasting was really interesting and tasted amazing! We enjoyed it quite a lot.

It was a very friendly and welcoming establishment. We arrived 15 minutes before closing, and they still took the time to go through their different kinds of mead. Oh, it's also the only mead brewing company in Ireland.

We saw an ad about the Kinsale Mead co and mead tasting, so we decided to check it out. We're so glad that we did! They're really friendly, down to earth and share their stories of how mead is produced and how they source their honey. We got to taste the different honey they use and once the tour is finished, you try out different mead. Our favourite was the mead aged in the whiskey and bourbon barrels respectively ... so much so that we bought two bottles each :) We didn't drive there - we walked up from the town (you get a great workout going up the hill and stairs!) :) Highly recommend visiting the Kinsale Mead Co - it's the only mead producer in Ireland!

The tour was great. It was just the right length with some history and some discussion. The tour was informative and again, just the right length. The mead was delicious. It was not sweet and incredibly delicious. Very much worth the money and great activity.

We were given this tour as a birthday gift for my husband, and what a lovely gift it was. The tour was fun and interesting (Kate is very knowledgeable and also very funny!). It was great to see how honey from the local area and further afield is transformed into such an interesting and historic drink - topped off by a lovely tasting at the end. Would definitely recommend this as a lovely way to spend an hour or so in Kinsale! We will definitely recommend this to our Bed and Breakfast guests.

What a pleasant experience. Mead is very rare in the US so I was excited to try it. The tastings weren't overly sweet nor drowning in honey flavor. I was so surprised. I really enjoyed it and brought a couple of bottles home. The owner/brewer was very knowledgeable and answered all my questions. I'd be happy to go back. Worth your time to experience.

This is a terrific tour. Very interesting to learn about the history of mead. The owners are charming and excellent hosts on the tour. The mead tasting at the end was a great way to finish.

This was a great experience for those interested in the history of both Ireland and alcohol. The tour is provided by the owner who was a wealth of information. The samples expanded our palate to another form of alcohol. Great rainy day (or any day) visit and not far out of Kinsale proper.

Arrived after a walk up the hill The mead ‘place’ was very neat The owners did a great job describing mead, it’s history and how they got this place opened We also met some interesting folks from contenental Europe

Kel was very knowledgeable about the history of Mead. We loved the taste and would recommend the experience.

The presenters were extremely organized and very good. It was all an very interesting process and tasting!

Excellent experience and great taste of all the wines. Pádraic gave us a great explanation about everything. Thanks!🙏🏽

It was absolutely perfect! The tour was an incredible mix of history, humor, science, and mead making. They are very serious about the mead but don’t take themselves too seriously. GO! You will be better for it.

Kate and Dennis were great hosts and Kate was an excellent tour guide, explaining the history of mead, bees and honey. The 5 meads we tasted were excellent, not at all what we expected. An hour well spent!

Learn all about mead, where it originates from, it's history, and of course how it is made today. And the best for last ... the tasting at the end ! Really impressive smells, tastes and flavours. Great presents for our friends back home !
