I'd tried mead in the past but honestly it pales in comparison to Sam's mead. You can tell it's a genuine quality product. A lot of passion has gone into making a product he cares about and it really... See more

Best meads

Best meads, you won’t be disappointed!
The kvasir's blood/ cherry and hibiscus mead is my favourite and I’ll be buying again.

my second order

This will be my second order, I had the toffee apple and the oakbeards treasure and they both taste amazing.

The toffee apple one I was worried it may be too sweet but after having a bit it's not as sweet as I thought and the subtle hint of spices make it even nicer.

The oakbeards I mixed with lemonade and on the days with warm weather it's nice and refreshing without being overly sweet.

I would recommend trying any of the mead is man has on offer very delicious will be ordering again hopefully soon. 😊😊

Oakbeard's Treasure is a precious gem

Oakbeard's Treasure truly felt like I'd discovered a rare gem. The label art is above and beyond, I don't think I can throw the bottle away! Props to whoever designed that. Thanks for the quick delivery and friendly service.

Fantastic service

Resent new bottle the next day after being returned by DPD due to damage during initial delivery which is outside of Sam & Arcane Alchemist

A Mead Worthy of Gods and Immortals

The penultimate mead experience. Such is the calibre of the mead Produced here. I am currently enjoying a nice glass of the Kvasir's blood and it is sublime. A Sweet and sour concoction with a sharp hit that allows the imbiber to taste the sour cherries and the hibiscus with the aid of the background flavours allows for a truly wonderful flavour profile. The complex flavours work to add a sweet tang to the sour and allows for a smooth and perfectly balanced mead. Truly a Masterpiece deserving of the rank of Divine.

Amazing Mead! Amazing Business

First of all the website is wonderful, really well designed and it's clear that the business knows a lot about the product they are producing which means it's absolutely delicious! You can tell that great care and attention have gone into this wonderful business and I will certainly be a returning customer. The service was smooth, fast and clearly this is a business that cares about it's custom as the little details that came in the box were wonderful. All in all, amazing experience as a consumer and a big fan of mead!

Mead making master

I've followed Sam since the beginning and with each new creative craft comes a delightful and tantalising mead. He is a true craftsman of his trade. His passion always comes through with every taste. I admire his ability to welcome his followers views at co producing ideas and creating a safe community for all. Would recommend his mead to all.

Absolutely unreal

So I got to try all the meads at a fareham market and left with three bottles, tropical, toffee apple and Christmas spiced. All soooo good and my favourite (though it was like picking a favourite child) had to be the tropical and I’m definitely going to stock up on that one for the summer! It is sweet, refreshing and tastes like an adult Solero which will be perfect for any summer like weather or just because. My only regret is that I didn’t pick up the reaper mead, it was spicy but the warmth was really pleasant and after telling my dad about it he is requesting I pick him up a bottle when I do my next order. The mead itself is absolutely stunning and the owner is so lovely. If mead is your thing or you’re looking to try something new I fully recommend this company!

Amazing mead that will definitely be buying again

Amazing mead that is almost too tasty to drink in moderation. I had the toffee apple flavoured mead and it got delivered very promptly after the age verification. i never had mead before but after drinking it, I'm definitely having it on my shopping list if I'm running low.

Amazing Mead!

The mead is delicious, best served chilled. Tastes similar to desert wine. Super fast and personal service. Can tell Sam really cares for his product and his business. Will buy again!
