COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Recipe: René. Our first ever mead.
English: Brewed with fresh honey from Vonsild, just south of Kolding. Thyme and juniper berries added to the wort. Aged 4 months on a fresh French Oak Cask with fresh Beech leaves collected from the park (Legeparken) close to the Castle Lake in Kolding.
Yggdrasil is an atypical mead. Low in alcohol and not as sticky sweet as other meads. It more resembles a dessert wine.
There might be a good deal of sediment in your bottle, as the mead is completely unfiltered.
