Caribeño is of my favorites! Every sip is smooth and full of flavor. I bought a case and am now thinking I didn’t buy enough. Costa Rica Meadery has perfected mead making and elevated it as an art from. If you are visiting the Central Valley, book the tour and tasting to experience the spirit and essence of Costa Rica!!
This has been a wonderful experience getting to know such passionate people putting together such a wonderful product. It is unique and delicious, you can enjoy it with a good platter of cheese or even with desert; it´s so versatile. I really admire the passion that is put in every product they manufacture.
Una vez que mi paladar se empapó de Génova, la Nona me servía un plato de pasta al pesto, tomates, focaccas.
La diversión de hacer pasta en casa, sobre una mesa, pero también es el trópico azul de lluvia, el verdor, es un no pertencer a ninguno de los dos lados del atlántico. Una cerveza que es un viaje de ida y vuelta, ¡Gracias, que pura vida!
Probamos varias cervezas y esta fue la que ganó como la favorita del pueblo. Fue la que dio mejores comentarios de todos los que la probaron. Es fácil de tomar, sabores que resultaron familiares y bien balanceados para todos.
Un hidromiel muy sabroso y complejo que mezcla sabores frutales, ácidos y dulces, que a su vez es refrescante, por tanto, lo hace ideal para disfrutarlo después de comer, recomiendo consumirlo frio o en las rocas.
Et tu Brute es un espumoso muy bien logrado y balanceado, la acidez otorgada por la maracuyá se complementa perfectamente con el dulzor de la miel, permitiendo que no sea ni muy dulce ni muy acido, si a esto se le suma la textura que da lo espumoso en boca logra un producto muy bien terminado, tiene un leve amargor que hace esta mezcla muy refrescante para compartir en cualquier momento.
Fue una experiencia bastante agradable, conocimos frutas muy interesantes que no son tan comunes, el lugar muy lindo y limpio , y los dueños de verdad emiten una energía muy linda, realmente aman lo que hacen y lograr que el visitante se sienta muy a gusto en el lugar,
Si quieren salir de la rutina, por un día, muy recomendado
Las bebidas muy interesante sus sabores y lo bueno es que hay para todos los gustos
La complejidad de aromas es un Universo a la mente , cumple la promesa romántica de sabores exóticos e inimaginables que revolotean a la música de la carbonatación salvaje . Un dorado profundo de extrema elegancia recuerda un atardecer en Abril previo a las lluvias . Simplemente una belleza !
Una de mis favoritas, MUY diferente y ese saborcito frutal leve a sandía, la lleva a otro nivel. Refrescante , fresca y ese “algo más” que solo se puede saber probándola. Recomendada.
Es mi bebida alcoholica favorita, muy refrescante.
Una enhanced hiel bien hecha
Es una bebida que todos tienen que probar, es dulce pero sin perderse de que es una cerveza, cada uno de sus ingredientes se perciben y se disfrutan mucho
Probamos este producto en un dia de mucho calor y es excelente , nos permitió disfrutar un grupo, la calidad es excelente. Ya habíamos probado hidromiel en otro pais pero no es ni cerca de este. Los felicito keep on going
Well... Alejandra has done it again! Somehow she has figured out how to brew a delicious, unique brew using some very unusual fruits that she found growing at El Arca. This time she has used Kiwano (look it up!), Tomatillo, and rosemary-infused honey to create a refreshingly tart, fruity beer. For me, Cucumi is similar to Acertijo, one of my all-time favorites from Costa Rica Meadery, yet different enough to stand on its own. I am so happy this sour beer is in a 350 ml bottle... I am going to be frequently grabbing one of these from the fridge during these hot days!
As the co-owner of Costa Rica Meadery, the proud producer of MELINIA, I might just have a tiny bit of bias when it comes to our creations. But, let's be honest, who wouldn't? I've always had a soft spot for all of our sweet meads, yet MELINIA holds a special place in my heart. What sets it apart for me is its delightful tartness, a playful twist that dances on the palate, distinguishing it from our other sweet offerings.
I find immense joy in sipping this mead from a cordial glass, where its vibrant flavors and aromas can truly express themselves. However, my fondness doesn't stop there. Incorporating MELINIA into a spritz cocktail elevates it to a whole new level of refreshment. It's hard to imagine a more invigorating drink to enjoy on a warm, sunny afternoon in the tropics. The combination of its tartness with the effervescence of a spritz makes it an unparalleled delight.
So, while I admit my view might be slightly colored by my role, I invite you to dive into the unique experience that is MELINIA. It's more than just a mead; it's a testament to the creativity and passion we pour into every bottle at Costa Rica Meadery. Cheers to the adventures that await in every glass!

This is an amazing oasis in Costa Rica! The owners/operators are very impressive. Alejandra took us on a tour of the grounds that feature all of the fruits, trees and plants that they use in the mead and beer. The tasting was intimate, informative and very tasty. The ingredients are fresh and perfectly balanced. An awesome way to spend a few hours in Costa Rica. Go see Michael and Alejandra! It’s so worth it!

Fui con mi familia incluido mi hijo de 3 años y a todos nos encanto el tour, probamos diferentes frutos que luego nos ayudaron a distinguir mejor en las hidromieles y bueno la atención un 10/10 son muy buenos explicando.
It was an amazing experience; the tour was truly interesting, and the tasting experience was the best. They made it fun by sharing fascinating facts about Costa Rican culture and historical practices. What added an extra layer of delight was the opportunity to taste the actual fruits they use to craft the drinks, providing a delightful sensory connection to the local flavors.
Nice people who love what they do and show it to you with such passion can never go wrong. Amazing product. Want to keep coming here!
My husband and I had an incredible time at the Costa Rica Meadery garden tour and tasting led by the charismatic owner, Michael. The meads and beers brewed by his wife, Alejandra were a delightful and unique blend of flavors, We enjoyed every sip! During the tour, we also got to taste some of the raw ingredients, including a few we never heard of before. The farm's restaurant served a delicious lunch with beautiful views, completing a truly memorable and enjoyable experience. It’s a great way to spend a good part of the day while in the San Jose area! Highly recommend!
Great time on the tasting tour ran by Michael! 100% recommend for a 2 hour tour. Lots of interesting flavours exclusive to Costa Rica.
Hey Chris. Thanks for celebrating your honeymoon with us! I hope you and your wife have a wonderful time in Costa Rica.
