A Modern Legend: The Rise of Sparkling Mead
While traditional mead is the heavy "spirit" of the Viking Age, Sparkling Mead is its refreshing, social successor. Handcrafted in artisan meaderies, these brews take the high-quality honey used in our flagship batches and introduce a delicate effervescence. The result is a drink that feels familiar to wine drinkers but carries the unmistakable floral depth of true Yorkshire honey.
Why Choose Sparkling Mead?
Many of our patrons are looking for a "session" drink—something with a lower ABV and a lighter body that can be enjoyed throughout a long celebration. Our sparkling range is naturally gluten-free and avoids the heavy sugars found in commercial ciders. It is the perfect bridge between the ancient halls of the past and the modern craft beverage scene.
How to Serve Sparkling Mead
Unlike our Traditional Honey Mead, which can be enjoyed at room temperature, sparkling mead is at its best when served ice-cold. The carbonation carries the honey aromas to the surface, making it incredibly refreshing. For the best experience, we recommend a Polished Drinking Horn, as the smooth interior perfectly preserves the bubbles and keeps the drink cooler for longer.
