Who We Are
We are proud to be a family run, son and father company,
often borrowing the help of our close family and friends.
Oliver Wheatley
Founder & Head Mead Maker
Hi my name is Oliver, I am the founder of Wheatleys of Yorkshire. I have been a mead making hobbyist for a number of years. Late 2019 I left my full-time job and decided to take the risk turning my skills into a business. Incorporated early in 2020, at possibly the worst time in history for a new startup, we persevered and here we are offering you these delicious mead drinks.
I first tried mead in my late twenties. Oh the taste… I was instantly captivated by the mellow honey sweetness and the smooth mouthfeel. Thus this hobby and passion for the beautiful honey wine was born.
John Wheatley
Assistant Mead Maker
Hi I’m John, I am Ollie’s father. I recently retired from my job as a factory worker where I have been working shifts since I was about twenty one. Ollie has now drafted me in as his Assistant Mead maker, which I am thoroughly enjoying. I had never previously done any form of home brewing so my role tends to be head sanitiser and must mixer.
I have learned a lot from his instruction and we have a great time working together father and son to produce these amazing meads for you. We very much hope you enjoy, feel free to stop by the meadery and say hello!
