Lindisfarne Traditional Mead Lindisfarne Mead is produced using traditional methods at St. Aidan’s winery on Holy Island of Lindisfarne, using honey sourced worldwide to create the perfect balance. It has an ABV of 14.5% and is a unique blend of honey and wine with the sweetness of the honey lingering on the palate.
Flavour notes: While it has a very pale appearance, the taste of Lindisfarne Mead yields a subtle acidity with a medium body of sweetness. It achieves a dry-sweet balance that gives this drink a more refreshing taste than other meads.

Not usually a drinker and when I do it's a gin liqueur. So I wanted to try mead. I thought it would be sweeter with the honey, but seemed more like a wine to me, although I know it's not wine it hit me initially like one on first taste but as you you drink more it settles down and becomes moreish.
This was my first taste of a mead and what a discovery!! As you can tell from the empty bottle this goodness went down within one evening! A wonderful beverage with deliciously smooth and sweet notes and the taste was at the same time strong yet not overpowering. Definitely will be trying the other Lindesfarne mead selections - this is a find and a half!
I was absolutely over the moon with my purchase , it arrived in good time and was well packaged .
It also held a drinking horn sweets and a message .
I will be recommending to my friends .
Thankyou so much 🙏🥰
I'm working my way through the mead collection. Haven't had a single disappointment and on average they're a third of the price that my nearest retailer charges.
I would add a photo but its all gone already 🤣
Anyway, this is my favourite mead maker and even though Lindisfarne is only 40 minutes down the road, work gets in the way so I turn to RF to supply it. Would highly recommend it for taste and affordability
Shall I compare thee to a summers day? Ah, sweet mystery.
Many, many "traditional" meads with no adjunctive have, to my palate, seemed thin and watery. NOT this one. I finally know why Lindisfarne is so highly rated. I never tried it before. It tastes like summer in a bottle. It is sweet, with overtones of honey (strange, that - wonder where they came from). It is mellow without being watery. It just lays there and softly murmers "come get me". And at its core it has just a subtle hint of its strength within. Delicious.
