    Zymarium is a collaboration between Joe Leigh and Ginger Leigh (Synthestruct)

    (with the help of some wonderful partners and family)

    Joe Leigh has been making mead since 2014 and has won dozens of awards over the years, including six Mazer cups. Named by the American Mead Makers Association as one of the top 10 mead makers in the world multiple years in a row.

    Ginger has not only designed everything you see in the tasting room and the brand, but her uncompromising vision for the meadery has made this dream a reality. Many of you know her work as Synthestruct, creating interactive installations and large-scale audiovisual experiences not only in Orlando, but all around the world.

    About Our Mead

    Since a mead can never be better than the quality of its ingredients, we use only the best honey we can find. We source our honey from as many local sources as we can, usually within two hours of Orlando, ensuring that our our meads are not only hyper local, but the money goes back to growing local hives and bee population (drink mead, save the bees!). We only use honey that has not been heated ensuring that the volatile aromatics and enzymes of the honey are preserved. Our local honey is unfiltered, just like our meads, to preserve the local pollen.

    We take a modern approach to mead making, applying all the latest science of both wine- and beer-making to ensure our meads unlock the true potential of the honey while focusing on continually exploring new flavor profiles, taking full advantage of the fact that all honey tastes different!

    About Mead

    Mead is gluten-free alcohol made from honey, just as wine is made from grapes and beer is made from grains. Mead typically ranges from 6% to 14% alcohol, it can be still or sparkling, crisp like a beer, dry like wine, or sweet like a dessert. It can be fermented with fruit, spiced, barrel-aged, hopped, etc.

    Mead is the oldest form of alcoholic beverage, and the oldest remnants of mead were found in pottery sherds in what is now Northern China dating back to at least 7000 BC. Hunter-gatherers likely drank mead out of animal skins even before the invention of pottery. Mead pre-dates the wheel, agriculture, and metal tools. The Romans drank mead, as did the Babylonians, Indians, Africans, Central Americans, Asians, Eastern Europeans, British Islanders, and yes, the Vikings. Wherever your ancestors are from, they likely drank mead, and mead played an important role in many civilizations’ mythologies. Enjoy this piece of living history!
