What is Loxwood Meadworks’ signature product, Pure Mead?

PURE MEAD 

Out with the traditional and in with the modern.  We are on a mission to ‘Reimagine mead for a new generation’… everything from branding to taste.  Introducing our Pure Mead made from our own unique blend of honey.

SWIRL & SIP

Deep golden in colour with honied-citrus aromas, this delicious off-dry honey wine has an elegant minerality, crisp zesty flavours which complement the rich, creamy, textured finish.

 

SERVE & PAIR

Serve chilled in a wine glass and try pairing with a cheeseboard.  The acidity cuts through the richness ofthe cheese and the delicate sweetness complements any sweet accompaniments whilst contrasting the saltiness.  For more pairing inspiration check out our blog.

MEADMAKING

Made similarly to a white wine we ferment to dry with a cool fermentation; retain all the delicate flavours. After, we back-sweeten with our unique blend of honey to produce the gentle sweetness.

A honeymoon history

Have you ever wondered where the term ‘honeymoon’ comes from? Some believe it dates back centuries, to a very boozy – and generous – wedding tradition involving (you guessed it) mead.

 

As the story goes, newly married couples were given enough bottles of mead to last for their first month together – or in other words, one moon’s worth. The gift was to celebrate the sweetness of their unity, and this time came to be known as the ‘honeymoon period’. 

 

Honey is also a divine substance, historically. In Celtic mythology, it was said that a ‘river of mead’ ran through paradise. 

 

Mead for the future

We may specialise in mead for the modern age, but the special history of mead is something we think needs to be re-ignited. 

With its subtly sweet and distinctive taste, Loxwood Meadworks Pure Mead makes a thoughtful wedding or valentine’s gift. Why not raise your first glass as a couple (or toast an engagement) with a drink that is quite unlike any other?
