Mead is a unique and rare beverage made by fermenting honey. Indeed, it is the oldest fermented drink known to mankind. In ancient Greece it was known as ‘Ambrosia’ - nectar of the Gods.

After a decade or more experimenting with different honey’s and yeasts the famous Maxwell Honey Mead was born. The first commercial label was released in 1966 and with it, the birth the Australian mead industry. Mark Maxwell remains true to the recipe and techniques pioneered by his father. Though the package may have evolved over the years, the quality and purity of the mead has not. A benchmark for others to follow, it has been awarded the ‘best pure varietal mead’ gold medal at the International Mead Festival Competition in the USA.

Bright, golden hues. Floral beeswax and nutty marmalade-like aromas.
Refreshingly light on palate, subtle apricot and honey characters fill the mouth. Predictably sweet but not cloying.

Serve chilled over ice in a stemless wine glass.
