INTRODUCING the latest flavor on tap here at Big Island Meadery: Apple of my Aina!
Bursting with juicy rich flavor, this Apple mead blends the sweet-tart richness of local apples with the bright, tangy essence of our local tropical honey, creating a tasty, cider-like beverage and absolutely crushable at 6.9% ABV! In bottles to go AND Tap Fills!

Visit Us
Our newly constructed Tasting Room is nestled just off highway 11 and 130, amongst the lush jungle of Puna!
Big Island Meadery LLC, is the brainchild of award winning meadmakers and beekeepers Vanessa Houle, MBA graduate, and Devin Magallanes, innovator. Big Island Meadery LLC is fully licensed and ready to make an impact on the local craft beverage scene.
While at its basic, mead aka “honey wine” is a combination of honey, water and yeast. But at Big Island Meadery, Vanessa and Devin have been creating locally inspired flavors with the use of locally produced honey from their apiary, and locally grown fruits and spices. “Mead is an interesting medium. It fills the gap between wine, beer and mixed drinks. And that’s what we wanted to do; offer more variety in the Big Island beverage scene, while producing it all right here in Keaau, Hawaii!!”
Currently sales of mead are through the tasting room only. We will notify the public when we have the ability to sell online!
MAHALO!
