What are your favorite local wines or local meads in North Georgia?
Well, it has been absolutely brilliant reading up on all of this. Hopefully some time very soon i might actually be able to check some of it out in person. I think the combination of using honey and fruits from the same farm would be an interesting way to make adult beverages. They are making the fresh bread that they offer with tastings sound pretty good too!
Hi Kwidzin, It’s definitely nice to be able to eat and drink such tasty things that are made with locally produced fruits and honey!
