This is our Black Grouse or Grugiar Ddu yn Cymraeg. It is a medium sweet metheglin, also referred to as a spiced mead. It comes in a wooden gift box with a jar of Welsh honey. Perfect if you're looking for a corporate gift or you're buying mead as a gift for a lucky person!
It can be enjoyed on its own, mixed with tonic or mixed with fruit juices. See our recipe section for a step by step guide on how to make mulled mead at home.
Grugiar Ddu has a light golden colour, the taste is a subtle blend of honey and spices and it has a smooth finish. It is medium sweet so it is perfect if you have a slightly sweet tooth, without being cloyingly sweet. It has a similar mouthfeel to a sweet wine.
Grugiar Ddu is 13% ABV and comes in a glass bottle with a resealable bar-top closure.
Grugiar Ddu can be made into a long drink with tonic or soda water or mixed into a cocktail.
If you prefer a dryer mead, why not try our Gylfinir. If you like medium sweet mead but spiced mead is not for you, you could try our Telor Y Coed or the sweeter Boda’r Mêl.
This product is only available for delivery in the UK and you must be at least 18 years old to order.
