Located in Londonderry, New Hampshire, the Moonlight Meadery prides itself on its specialized concoctions that have come from its vast knowledge and careful perfection of "the world's oldest alcoholic beverage."
Although the Moonlight Meadery was founded back in 1995, it's been constantly innovating to maintain its consumer engagement. The company's founder has won international awards for his creative recipes, which has also contributed to the Moonlight Meadery's popularity among locals and travelers alike.
To create its meads, the company works hard to source ingredients that are found locally, and grows much of the fruit it uses as well. In order to maintain the quality of the natural flavor, it never uses pasteurized honey either, which "ensures that the volatile aromatics of the honey are preserved."
