Near the famous fortified settlement of Plinkaigalio, on the banks of the fast-flowing river Šušvė, where our ancestors already prospered in prehistoric times, the old craft of mead production was revived.
It produces the oldest traditional alcoholic beverage in the world - mead, which was already popular among the ancient Egyptians, Romans, Greeks and which soon spread throughout the world. Lithuanians drank various types of mead from "antiquity" until the 18th century; therefore, mead is considered our national drink.
Mead is a natural fermented, unfortified alcoholic beverage. Šušvės midus mead is made from natural honey collected by bees from its own apiary, so it always guarantees high quality mead.
Erikas Augustinavičius is the third generation of beekeepers in the family, beekeepers also his grandfather and mother. They currently have their own apiary, where 150 beehives are buzzing. The mead was already made by his grandfather and mother, from whom he took over the secrets of making mead. A few years ago, he decided to turn his hobby into a legitimate business.
Our family is from the district of Kėdainiai, the village of Plinkaigalio, on the banks of the river Šušvė, near the famous mound Plinkaigalio and the Iron Age cemetery. According to archaeologists, mead has been known and used at various festivities and celebrations in our region since prehistoric times.
He continued the old tradition of the region and, based on his mother's experience and his own knowledge, founded a mead shop. In the production of mead, it does not save honey - each liter of mead contains up to 750 g of honey. They do not use any chemical additives during production, only natural raw materials (a small amount of sulphite naturally occurs during production). This makes them different from other manufacturers.
The mead matures for at least 1 year, some types of mead for at least 3 years. Honey is the main ingredient that gives the mead color, taste and aroma. The taste of ripe mead is noble, unobtrusively sweet, full.
Fills mead into bottles of original design; the stoppers are covered with natural beeswax, so the pleasant aroma spreads even without opening the bottle.
