Commercial Description:
English: The oldest known recipe for mead to be written down in the Nordic countries was in 1520 by the Archbishop Olaus Magnus. The recipe comprised of water, honey, hops and brewers yeast, and concludes, that "on the eight day - or earlier in emergencies - the mead may be drunk, but the longer it is left, the purer, better and healthier it will be." Our products are brewed based on a recipe from about year 1700, and the ingredients are pure and 100 pct. natural - guaranteed free from additives of any kind. Honey is the major and most important item in the recipe.

This corked ceramic bottled mead from a bottle shop poured a head of medium sized clear colored bubbles that were quickly diminishing and left behind a transparent uncarbonated light yellow-orange colored body and a oily lacing. The aroma was honey and ginger. The mouth feel was tingly at the start and at the finish with a strong vinous aftertaste. The flavor contained notes of mild spice sweet vinous honey and ginger. Delicious and one I would certainly buy again.

LIght honey and spice in the aroma. Has a very distinct nose, and pours a beautiful heavy oily in the glass, leaving great lacing. Warming on the palate, but tastes very clean, and very heavy, with a lingering sweet finish.

Bottle. [thank you, Yespr]
Pours dark coppery golden with no head. Aroma is mild honey, and slight spices. Oily and thick mouthfeel. Flavour is sweet, sharp alcohol and weak caramel. Not my kind of mead.
