Sweet mead with taste of acacia honey.
Acacia forests of southern Slovakia reveal the transformation of flower to crystal clear honey. Thanks to it, the Old Slavic light mead has the typical honey flavor with a hint of freshly blooming acacia. The light yellow color is unique and it is reflecting the warm rays of the sun and freshly mown fields. Just a small cup and a weekday is transformed into special moment.
Old Slavic mead light is pure natural honey wine made according to the original recipe of acacia honey. It's a honey from acacia that groves in southern Slovakia. It is very light in colour with a pleasant mild and delicate flavour. This mead uniquely combines the delicious taste and delicate honey aroma typical of acacia honey.
Best to be enjoyed slowly from the long-stemmed glasses, cooled down to 12-16 °C. Can be also drank hot, heated to 55-60 °C.
Light acacia mead has been produced since 2005.
