We've been hard at work since the grand opening of our taproom on August 29, 2020. Our mead has already been shipped to 6 states, there are multiple barrels filled with mead that should be going into bottles in the next month or so, more batches of mead are being started, session meads should be available in cans soon, we started offering free WiFi, and the final touches are being put on our mead club...the Kupfer Klub "Copper Club".
Jasper’s first meadery, Waldmet Cellars, will host a grand opening celebration on August 29, 2020 from 1-8 p.m. for its brand-new taproom. A wide selection of meads and other products will be available at the new taproom. For the grand opening celebration, there will be 6+ meads on draft and a few more in bottles. From classic honey to fruit and herb-infused varieties. Other varieties will be announced soon when they are available for purchase.
