Danny & Emily’s words
Hello, Welcome to Vintage 2022—a momentous occasion that brings both excitement and challenges, marking the beginning of an annual tradition we are excited to share with you. Every brand has its origin story, and ours traces back to a dream kindled around a fire pit at our mediaeval festival. From those humble beginnings, we've evolved into proud custodians of our buzzing companions, the bees and working with dream partners.
Thrilled to unveil our first vintage honey wine, crafted from the riches of a small parcel of hives nestled in the heart of Loxwood Meadow, our cherished home in West Sussex. As we've nurtured our bee colonies over the years, witnessing the seasonal and annual nuances in honey production, the dream of creating a sustainable surplus for our first vintage has become a reality.
The time has come to present our expression of 2022—a limited release of 480 bottles, ready for you to savour, age, or add to your collection. Each bottle encapsulates not just the honey within but the passion, dedication, and journey we've embarked on to bring this creation to life.
This letter marks the beginning of an annual tradition where we'll share our discoveries, challenges, and the unique character of each vintage. We're thrilled to have you join us on this exciting journey.
With love,

Where it all began
Loxwood Joust
It was at the heart of the Loxwood Joust—a medieval festival nestled in the rolling hills of West Sussex—that Danny’s fascination with mead took root. His passion for this age-old drink soon led him to Emily, a sommelier with a shared vision. Together, they embarked on a journey to breathe new life into honey wine, crafting a collection that blends tradition with a fresh, modern touch.
