Dansk Mjod Odin’s Skull Mead
About Dansk Mjod Odin’s Skull Mead
A Nordic Honey Wine, also known as Mead, indeed a rare gem in the world of spirits. This is a splendid blend of honey wine, sour apple juice and spiced with hops and cinnamon. Let’s take a moment to talk about this intriguing Mead shall we? The oldest alcoholic beverage known to man, Mead is created by fermenting honey with water. Additional flavors can be added to this base concoction, resulting in a wide range of mead varieties. With typical alcohol percentages ranging between 10%-20%, it’s a delightful compromise between wine and spirits. Now you might wonder how is mead different from dessert wine. Well, they are indeed quite similar, both offering sweet flavors, but while dessert wines derive their sweetness from grape sugars, mead finds its essence in the natural sweetness of honey, bestowing upon it a unique, complex character. And now let’s return to our distinguished Odin’s Skull. Odin, usually depicted one-eyed and long-bearded, is the Norse God associated with knowledge, victory, healing, and wisdom… but also death and sorcery. This brew is prepared to honor Odin’s name: “Master of inspiration and fury.” As Odin’s Skull is brewed with 100% natural, and completely unfiltered apple juice there may be sediment at the bottom of the bottle. To maximize all flavors and aromas please pour carefully. And yes, you can indeed get your hands on this brilliant Dansk Mjod Viking Blod Mead online at Curiada, with a delivery time of 2-5 days. Marvelous, isn’t it?
