Honey Wines Australia has had many calls for a sweet plain mead so we did.
This one has no additional fruits or spices like our other meads, just honey, water, yeast and a lot of patience.
Made from raw honey from hives located in the Hunter Valley region of NSW.
This mead is 12% alcohol and is sold in a 750ml bottle.
Particles in raw honey can settle over time, invert the bottle before serving.
We use a tiny amount of potassium metabisulfite to sterilise wild yeast in honey before fermentation starts (as we like raw unheated honey), probably not enough to even worth mentioning but we put it on the label just in case.
Although we think it tastes best at room temperature if you can’t finish within a few days then store it in the fridge after opening.
Did you know a worker bee only makes about half a teaspoon of honey in it’s life? That is a lot of bees just for this bottle.

I think the mead at the bottom of the bottle is much sweeter than the mead at the top. I only enjoy it when I nearly finished the bottles. Goes too quickly
Martin (store manager) –
Over time as more air fills up space in the bottle all wines start oxidising, though there is no more sugars at the bottom of the bottle it can give it the illusion of being sweeter and more syrupy. A small percentage of the population prefers meads in this short window before it goes stale from too much air. For the bulk of Australian tasters this one is already quite sweet but if you prefer even sweeter you might enjoy Polish meads more.

Not as robust or sweet as I would like but that’s not to say others wouldn’t enjoy it though. Either way,keep up the work guys 🙂

Fast delivery. I have bought this for my son for Christmas (along with the Viking drinking horn mug). He hasn’t tasted it yet but going by the other reviews, it sounds delicious. The horn and mead will definitely be a hit.

My husband started to research his ancestry years ago for our wedding and found he was of Nordic desent. I wanted to get him some gifts for Christmas to pay homage to his ancestry. Along with a Nordic cook book, I found Hunter Valley Mead to complement and complete the gift. Hubby was very happy come Xmas day. We can not wait to cook a Viking feast and have some honey mead. Skul.

I am used to full bodies Polish meads so I was, at first, somewhat disappointed with your mead. However over time I found it quite a flavorous and pleasant drink.

The Mead was delicious and delivered quickly

A great mead. Top quality, I’ll definitely be buying more. Tastes like a great home brew mead, not like anything mass produced. Delivery and ordering was all easy and delivery within a week of ordering.
