Schramm’s Mead is a craft meadery from Ferndale, Michigan, led by Ken Schramm, one of the most renowned authors and practitioners in the world of mead production. Their approach is based on the use of carefully selected honey, such as orange blossom honey, and large quantities of high-quality fruit, with some releases using more than 10 pounds of fruit per gallon of mead.
The range includes melomels, fruit-forward meads, and metheglins with spices, all reflecting a strong dedication to authentic and full-bodied flavors. The first meadery and tasting room opened in 2013 in Ferndale, where visitors can sample both core offerings and experimental editions.
Their portfolio features drinks with distinctive character, from classic berry combinations to exotic releases made with rare honeys. The brand is built on the values of quality and fidelity to ingredients, with plans for cultivating their own fruit and producing honey to increase sustainability.
Today, Schramm’s Mead is regarded as one of the most respected meaderies in the world, recognized for its commitment to excellence and authenticity.
