Scarlet Mead is a decadent liqueur mead crafted from fermented honey and enriched with grape spirit to preserve its natural sweetness and depth. Based on the original recipe by the late Fernando Martin, this indulgent blend of honey, chocolate, and cinnamon delivers a rich and moreish experience that lingers long after the last sip.
Tasting Notes
Aromas of warm cinnamon and cocoa rise from the glass, layered over a base of golden honey. On the palate, rich chocolate and spiced warmth meld seamlessly with the mead’s natural sweetness, creating a velvety, dessert-like profile. The finish is smooth, lingering, and irresistibly moreish.
Perfect Pairings
Pairs beautifully with tiramisu, dark chocolate, or spiced cakes. It also complements creamy desserts like panna cotta or vanilla bean ice cream, and adds depth to nutty or caramel-based treats.
Serving Suggestion
Enjoy neat, gently warmed, or poured over ice cream for a luxurious dessert. It also shines when added to coffee, hot chocolate, or used as a flavourful drizzle over baked goods.
