Introducing
Wines for
the Historian and the Honey Lover...
MEADS
The history of mead is intertwined
with that of man. It is the oldest fermented drink and has been a
part of many different cultures. To the Greeks, it was "The Nectar of the Gods." For
the Hindus, it insured fertility and for the Moors, it was an aphrodisiac.
The word Honeymoon comes from a pagan custom of drinking mead during
month long wedding celebrations to insure fertility and the birth
of sons. The Vikings believed warriors would get mead in Valhalla
and the Celts believed there was a river of mead flowing through
Paradise. Unconnected cultures at various periods in history have
associated Mead with fertility, sex, love, poetry and health. It
has been enjoyed throughout time by many people to include Kind Arthur,
Plutarch, King Midas, St. Finnian, Shakespeare, Queen Elizabeth and
the fictional characer of Beowulf. |
