Due to overwhelming popular demand for the original Chrysanthemum Mead launched in 2020, we decided to re-imagine this brew as a 14% wine style mead. Incidentally, this makes it our first commercially available wine style mead.

We’ve retained much of the same elements from the original brew. So you still the dense earthy notes and the dry bitterness that comes from over-steeping the chrysanthemum flowers in a typical homemade chrysanthemum tea. Only this time we decided to ramp the ABV to 14% to increase the density of the flavours.
This mead is very rich and dense. While it can be appreciated as is, it will also do very well when aged for a year or more in the bottle.
Finished un-carbonated and at 14% ABV, this mead, to paraphrase someone “feels like a satisfying drink in a tavern after fighting dragons the whole day.” Best served chilled in a glass with or without ice. A touch of sparkling water will
open up the floral notes from the chrysanthemum. As with all our seasonal meads, this mead is a one-off brew. 700 numbered bottles are made available while stocks last.
