Bringing the ancient drink of mead into the 21st century

Long before there were wine coolers and sparkling seltzers, there was mead. It's a simple drink, but with many complex potential flavors, and one key ingredient: honey. So bees are involved, but so are people, like the people at Oran Mor Artisan Mead in Roseburg.

We learn about the business and the drink in the latest edition of our business segment, The Ground Floor. Host Cynthia Scherr visits with Lilly Weichberger, CEO and Head Mead Maker.
