About

Welsh Mead is a traditional alcoholic beverage that dates back to the times of the Celts. It is created by fermenting honey with water, and sometimes various fruits, spices, grains, or hops. The honey's sweetness is pivotal to the flavor and alcohol content of the final mead. Once mixed, the concoction is allowed to ferment for several months or even years, depending on the desired taste and potency. Welsh Mead is known for its rich, sweet, and often complex flavor profile, boasting varying notes ranging from floral to earthy. It makes for an excellent drink to be savored on its own or paired with a feast during special occasions.
