Description

The first and youngest of the meads named after the three norns (Urd, Verdandi and Skuld), Urd is believed to represent fate and the past. Maturing this wild-fermented mead for one year has allowed the flavours to develop, and Urd has a smooth and full taste, with a touch of sherry and a hint of caramel. In spite of it’s complexity, Urd remains quite light and would probably be a good sweet drink for those who also like white wines.

The meads from the Lancashire Mead Company are probably best described as classic meads, with sweet and straightforward flavour profiles. They also tend to have a slight winelike “funk” that no doubt stems from close proximity to more experimental wild fermentations. While usually not strongly aromatic, they sit very pleasantly on the tongue and have both a mellowness and depth that make them extremely moreish. As such they are best enjoyed alongside cheeses or desserts that can serve as a contrast or a compliment to the sweetness of the mead, while also helping to prevent an entire bottle from “accidentally” vanishing.
