Moonshine is Asia and India’s first meadery!

Mead is an alcoholic beverage made by fermenting honey with various fruits and spices. It is the oldest fermented beverage known to man with evidence dating to 7000 BC. Meads have been present in various cultures through the ages — the Vikings drank it before battle, ancient Indian texts mentioned it, and Greek and Roman historians have discussed it. There have also been numerous references in literature, from Shakespeare and Lord of the Rings to Harry Potter and even Game of Thrones. The last decade has seen a resurgence that has taken this versatile archaic drink out of history and into the limelight as the fastest growing craft beverage in the world. Moonshine Meads can be found across Mumbai, Pune, Goa, Nashik, Aurangabad and Nagpur.

Moonshine has also recently launched their own brand of premium ‘hive to table’ honey. The Moonshine Honey Project sources honey directly from farmers across India — reducing middlemen and sourcing directly from beekeepers and farmers. They currently have a small batch of Sidr honey, harvested from Pali, Rajasthan in October 2020, which ships across India.
