The Black Raspberry Nectar or the Traditional Mountain Honey Wine are both delicious. The Traditional Mountain Honey Wine is great served slightly warmed. Give the Black Raspberry Nectar a go on a scorching summer day - the essence of refreshment! Bunratty Meadis made in the shadows of Bunratty Castle, built in the 15th century, and overlooking Ireland's famed River Shannon. Carefully crafted from an old Irish recipe that includes honey, white wine and herbs - this Mead is fairly sweet and suitable for a variety of palates and occasions. This 2003 Gold Medal Winner at the International Mead Festival is a delightfully sweet honey wine. Perfect with a wide range of dessert options. This semi-sweet and spicy Mead won Gold Medals in both 2002 and 2004 at the International Mead Festival. A versatile Mead that works well with or without food.
This is definitely a dessert Mead, very sweet with rich flavor. Take this Mead with a slice of cheesecake and enjoy!
