Philip Mead® Traditional is a delicious Premium Mead produced with a blend of different floral honeys, water, and imported yeasts. Its prolonged maturation results in a drink with a striking flavor, balanced sweetness, and a slightly citrus touch.

The high-quality ingredients used in the production process, without the addition of artificial extracts, sugars, colorings, or flavorings, give this drink a high degree of sophistication and provide the consumer with a truly Premium experience.

Producer's Note: I would like to highlight that honey is a highly complex ingredient as it derives from the nectar of different flowers. The intent of this recipe is to maximize this complexity and deliver a unique experience to customers. The blend of honeys from different flowers (wildflower and orange blossom) is responsible for bringing a delightful plurality of flavors and balance to the palate.

Fermentation occurs slowly and uses high-quality imported yeasts. After fermentation, the beverage undergoes a maturation process over months to enhance flavors and aromas and balance the sweetness.

Thus, when tasting your Philip Mead® Traditional, expect a drink with highly complex yet smooth and striking flavors. The different notes linger in the mouth for several seconds after swallowing, and the alcohol presence is very discreet. Additionally, the sweetness is balanced, making Philip Mead® not a cloying drink and having a very pleasant aftertaste, allowing you to drink the bottle on a single occasion.

How to drink this mead: You can open your Philip Mead® Traditional at a delicious seafood, pasta, or poultry dinner, as these dishes harmonize well with the complex flavors of this mead. We also recommend its consumption with cold cuts and strong cheeses, making a charcuterie board a great pairing suggestion.
