Description
Meet Denmark’s best and most experimental mead brewer
According to mythology, mead is the drink of wisdom, so here you have the opportunity to taste different versions of Snoremark’s award-winning mead at the same time as learning about the brewer’s stories and consuming the mead. Maybe you’ll be lucky enough to have a lasting positive effect on your IQ.
We will certainly do our best to stimulate both your taste buds and your brain when you taste Snoremark’s mead, which in 2023 won 4 gold, 3 silver and a single bronze medal at this year’s mead festival – and Karin Sloth was named Denmark’s best mead brewer.
It’s almost impossible to say mead without associating it with the Vikings, but the truth is that mead was brewed and appreciated thousands of years before the Viking Age. At Snoremark, in collaboration with the National Museum, we are the only ones to have recreated the very
oldest finds of mead from Denmark, which you must of course taste.
Of course, you shouldn’t be denied a taste of Viking mead There are no archaeological remains to copy, but we know what ingredients they had access to, so you’ll have to “make do” with our and the experts’ suggestions for Viking mead.
Of course, the time travel ends with tastings of Snoremark’s modern and award-winning mead varieties, produced according to the principles of the New Nordic Cuisine, working exclusively with local ingredients that are native to Denmark. Several of the ingredients come from our own production at the Snoremark farm, so there is also the opportunity to see and taste the herbs used in both the historical and modern versions of mead.
Note: Although mead is produced by fermenting honey, it’s not necessarily sweet because the honey is converted into alcohol, so don’t expect a “sugar guild”, but mead that can compete with quality wines.
There are tastings of 6 x meads.
We offer a 10% discount on mead and cider in our store for participants of our mead tastings
Price 175,- DKK, free for children under 16 years.
