Cheese. Wine. Mead. Thanks to the Heidrun Meadery, we can add mead to the long list of delicious, earth-conscious things that come out of West Marin and put Point Reyes on the culinary map. 

 

Come see what all the buzz is about with a tour and tasting at the Heidrun Meadery for six. Located in Point Reyes Station, Heidrun Meadery produces dry, naturally sparkling varietal meads using the traditional Méthode Champenoise. Heidrun Meadery was founded in 1997 in Arcata, California. In 2008 they purchased a slightly funky and defunct dairy farm in Point Reyes Station with the ambitious objectives of relocating the meadery nearer to the Bay Area, expanding their mead production, setting up a commercial beekeeping operation, starting a bee forage cultivation program, and establishing a modest visitor’s center and tasting room. 

Their trademark Champagne-style of mead is light, dry, delicate and refreshing, with subtle exotic aromas and flavors found only in the essence of honey. They pride themselves on producing their mead in the most sustainable manner and supporting beekeepers around the country. Their goal is to be involved in the meadmaking process from the flower that provides nectar for the honey bee to the flute from which we drink.
