FAQ's For Lancashire Mead Company Aegir Mead

How is this mead made?

Aegir is crafted as a traditional tannined melomel, using fermented honey as its base. Tea and orange juice are added during fermentation, creating natural tannins for structure and a gentle citrus lift that brightens the honeyed richness.

The Lancashire Mead Company embraces natural production, allowing hazing and sedimentation to occur as part of the maturation process. This approach preserves authenticity, depth and flavour integrity.

What is a melomel mead?

A melomel is a type of mead made by fermenting honey with fruit. Unlike traditional mead, which focuses purely on honey flavours, melomels introduce fruit character to create additional layers of aroma and flavour.

What does tannined mead mean?

Tannined mead contains natural tannins, which add structure, balance and a gentle dryness to the drink. In this mead, tannins from tea help complement the sweetness of honey and create a smoother, more complex finish.

Why does Aegir Mead have sediment?

As a natural artisan mead, Aegir may develop some haze or sediment over time. This is a natural part of maturation and is not harmful. Allowing the bottle to settle before pouring helps preserve its quality and flavour.
