Mead Making Workshop

Sure you can buy mead from the liquor store, but it's so much more fun to make your own. And that's what The Sundowner does best!
Our latest workshop starts in 16th century Europe, where newlyweds were commonly given a month (full moon)'s worth of mead as a wedding gift -- coining the term Honeymoon! Apparently it helped their 'fertility', to bear offspring a.s.a.p 🤭
You'll enjoy a quick tour of our apiary to inspect our honeybees up close, and understand why and how honey is made. Enjoy browsing our extensive honey library specialising in uniflorals from across Southeast Asia, and exotics from Europe and Aus/NZ.
Then taste some of our honeys and house meads available, before you decide what honey varietal to yeast up! As you make your very own bottle of mead, you'll understand the cool science behind fermentation. Finally, walk away with your own developing bottle of artisanal alcohol or even buy a few from us. It makes a perfect gift or story to tell!
