During long winter evenings we create our hot Highland Winter Mead by adding vanilla, cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg. This is a long and well-loved tradition during our cold winters. This will warm the body and soul, especially in cold weather.
The tradition of spiced mead started in the Middle Ages. Hot mead infused with precious spices was served to guests as a greeting. Spices were very expensive during the Middle Ages and their use indicated wealth and acknowledged the high status of the guest.
Served warm, fragrant spices and the masterly interweaving of sweetness and acidity mean that these aromas and the mead itself combine to produce a harmoniously accomplished and refreshing warm drink.
