Forget Champagne and Prosecco, this is where a sparkling is at. Light colour, fine bubbles, easy to drink and of course dry not too sweet. It’s a beehive in a glass.

I was first introduced to Luke & Suzie and Northumberland Honey, during a Zoom meeting with my local Beekeeping Association. Prior to the session, I thought I do a bit of research and bought a bottle of their Wildflower Sparkling Mead.
The bottle came extremely well packaged within its own cardboard bottle cradle nestled in eco recyclable packaging within their own branded parcel. I do like their logo and attention to the aesthetic detail. Lots of thought has clearly been invested the ‘first impressions’ – the parcel, the bottle, the cork and foil. It’s a joy to open .
To the main event – After carefully popping the cork (I don’t want to waste a drop), the mead is crystal clear liquid. After the de-corking flurry, it is finely sparkling and pours perfectly into a champagne flute. Those fine sparkles tickle the pallet leaving sweet floral honey notes all over my taste buds. A unique feeling of honeyed warmth washing over me as the mead works its magic ! Perfect for wooing a lover or enjoying on your own !!
I was so impressed with Luke and Susie and their ethos supporting honey bees and the all important provenance of their products, I decided to buy a range of their honey and mead. I will try to add a review of each as I gradually munch through these excellent products.

I came into the shop for a browse and was offered some samples of the wines offered. I chose this one as I like a dry wine. I kept this for a housewarming as it quite an extravagance! I really like this and would buy again for a special occasion.

I saw Robson Green visit the Northumberland Honey Company in his TV programme and was very impressed by Susie and Luke’s efforts in supporting honey bees. I have tried mead before but always found it a bit too sweet for my taste – my drink of choice is Champagne but I was tempted to order some when I saw how light and sparkling it appeared.
I therefore ordered a bottle of the Wildflower Mead, which was delivered very quickly and was superbly packaged in its own cardboard cradle.
I really was delighted with the mead which was a beautiful pale golden colour with lots of bubbles and not too sweet. I was so impressed that I have just ordered another bottle, along with some honey and a bottle of Honey Beer to try. If you like a light, fairly dry and sparkling wine with a distinct honey flavour, then I highly recommend this to you. I will definitely be giving this to friends as presents on special occasions.

I’ve tried this one before and loved how dry and refreshing it was, so brought it as a gift for a family birthday and they really enjoyed it too. It’s so different from other sweet meads, it has a crisp taste with a hint of honey and is more enjoyable that a sparkling wine or champagne to drink on its own. Perfect for any occasion.

Just gorgeous, love this mead and such a great alternative to Prosecco or champagne ad it has all the richness plus that hint of honey. Delivered really quickly, fabulously packaged and a great gift for a special occasion too. Will definitely buy again.

This is gorgeous and if you already like champagne and sparkling wine then you are in for a treat – this offers something more! The subtle flavour of the honey makes this a delight to drink.
This company are exceptional in their field and I’ll definitely be re-ordering!
