Founded in 1852 on the West Coast of South Africa, Hopefield is a quaint and rusticly beautiful town, best known for its floral diversity and sprawling scenery. It is from this unique region where the delicate fynbos honey for this mead was sourced.
Small additions of hops and juniper enhance the natural flavours of the honey. Aged on oak for six months, Hopefield is a delicate semi-sweet mead with a rich floral nose and an intense fruitiness on the palate.
