Amitloaf | Global Game JamDvora Meadery
What is Mead? Mead is one of the oldest and most traditional alcoholic beverages in human history. Crafted entirely from natural ingredients, it is a fermented alcoholic drink made simply from honey, water, and yeast.
At Dvora, we believe great mead starts with exceptional ingredients. We transform 100% locally sourced, fresh avocado honey into our brews, working directly with local apiaries to ensure the highest quality foundation for our craft.
I am incredibly proud to be one of the three founders and owners of Dvora, Israel's first widely commercial dedicated meadery. Our flagship product is a premium, still, semi-sweet mead sitting at a smooth 13% ABV. It's a testament to our focus on quality, tradition, and exceptional taste.
The magic happens at our dedicated factory and production facility located in Rishon Lezion. After already securing four distinct awards for our craft, we are currently gearing up to distribute Dvora nationwide so everyone can enjoy it soon.
