Description

The Ginger mead compliments the sweet flavours of the honey by adding ginger to the fermentation, making this a metheglin (spiced mead). The subsequent maturation means that the ginger flavours have time to mellow and blend with those of the honey, taking the sharpness out of the ginger bite and resulting in a gentle warmth that goes down very well on a cold evening.

Meads from the Afon Mêl bee farm and meadery are sweet, complex meads with flavour profiles comparable to sherry or port. The meads are matured in the vats for roughly 2 years, which gives the flavours and aromas plenty of time to blend and develop. This also adds sherry-like notes to the aftertaste, which can linger for a while afterwards. Best enjoyed in small sherry glasses or snifters.
