Mead, the origin of alcoholic beverages

world's oldest alcoholic beverage

``Rainwater collected in a beehive that had been destroyed by a bear, fermented and turned into alcohol, which was drunk by a passing hunter.'' This episode, which took place about 9,000 years ago, is said to be the origin of alcoholic beverages, and is said to be the origin of alcoholic beverages, not only for common people but also for generations. It has fascinated many people, from the kings and queens of Japan to the gods of mythology, and has been drunk from generation to generation.

Origin of honeymoon

In medieval Europe, mead was believed to bring fertility, and there was a custom for newlyweds to drink honey on full moon nights in order to conceive. This is the origin of the word "honeymoon," and it has a history of being given as a souvenir at weddings as an auspicious drink.

Natural water source rich in minerals

Lithuania is said to have more than 4,000 lakes, and has an abundance of natural mineral water sources. The Nemunas River (English name: Neman River), which has a total length of 900 km and flows across the country to the Baltic Sea, is also famous, and the Stakliškes region, where the brewery is located, is also a source of hard water rich in minerals.

How to drink according to the occasion

Mead can basically be enjoyed at room temperature. In the summer, chill it and add mint to make it refreshing. In winter, warm it up a little and add cinnamon sticks and cloves to enjoy the rich aroma.

Mead is perfect for aperitifs and dessert wines. It goes well with sweet sweets and dairy products such as cheese, yogurt, vanilla, and whipped cream. If you add frozen mead into a sorbet, you can enjoy a sweet for adults.
