Thyra’s Royal Mead pays homage to Denmark’s first queen, Thyra. The mead offers a fresh, fruity bouquet, balanced sweetness, and a gentle bitterness on the finish, reminiscent of wormwood.

This mead is fresh, with a fruity, berry-driven aroma dominated by red berries. A subtle stone-fruit bitterness unfolds in almond and marzipan notes. The acidity is well balanced, and the sweetness is harmoniously woven into a pleasantly fruity flavour profile. On the palate, a faintly prickly hint reminiscent of spiced vermouth emerges, accompanied by gentle bitterness.

The taste is warm and rounded, lightly fruity with nuances of aronia and wormwood. It can be used as a vermouth substitute in a Negroni and also works beautifully as a digestif with coffee after a meal.

Serve lightly chilled, at 8–10 °C.

Production process

This mead was made cold. This means that during its production, the honey was not heated above 40-45 °C, which is the normal temperature in nature to which honey is resistant. At higher temperatures, some precious components of honey can be damaged and degraded. Cold-made mead is the best choice.

We bring you the first swallow from Denmark in the form of honestly and artisanally produced Mjødgård brand meads. The mead farm was founded in 2008 by Odd Castmar with a clear vision and a written manifesto that set Mjødgård apart from other, as they say, "mead mixers" at the time.

Mjødgård should produce honest mead from local honey, local ingredients, herbs, go through artisanal production, the result of which will be a purely fermented product. Sufficient time should have been left for fermentation and maturation.
Mjødgård meads should have a delicate clean taste, which is given by the honey used, or traditional ingredients.
The production of Mjødgård mead should be sustainable, from local ingredients, gentle on honey.
In Denmark, just like in the Czech Republic and many other countries, honest and unfortunately more expensive mead has to compete with supermarket mead, which only looks like mead, is cheap and mixed in such a way that many people like it. Mjødgård meads gave me a taste and I believe they will appeal to you too.
