What is Mead? Mead is an alcoholic drink of fermented honey and water! However, not all meads are created in the same manner. Known as the drink of the Gods and in modern memory, associated with the Vikings, mead is now also produced using base alcohol, white wine or sugar syrup, with honey added at a later stage.
Pronounced ‘scar-dee’, Skadi is a giantess and Goddess of winter in Norse mythology. Skadi lives in the highest reaches of the mountains, where the snow never melts. She’s an avid huntress, and her bow, snowshoes and skis are her most often-mentioned attributes.
Skadi mead is a ‘hydromel’ (pure honey mead), using Blossom honey. This gives it a medium sweet taste and is suitable for drinkers of white wine and slightly dry cider and also for the purists among mead drinkers. Can be served however you wish –chilled, over ice, room temperature or warm. Loves to be paired with desserts.
