Product Description
St Ambrose Star Thistle Mead is a testament to the harmonious blend of tradition and nature. Originating from the pristine landscapes of Northern Michigan, this mead is crafted using the finest star thistle honey sourced from Sleeping Bear Farms. The result is a semi-dry, still mead that captures the essence of its floral origins.
Upon pouring, it reveals a brilliant yellow straw hue, reminiscent of a summer meadow. The aroma is a delicate bouquet of earthy notes, green tree bark, and subtle hints of lemon pith and rose hips. This olfactory experience sets the stage for a tasting journey that is both nuanced and refreshing.
The palate is greeted with a velvety texture, where flavors of honeyed lime, pear, and a touch of peppercorn dance harmoniously. The mead’s balanced acidity and semi-dry finish make it an ideal companion for a range of culinary delights. Pair it with sharp cheeses like Gorgonzola or Roquefort, roasted chicken, or a medley of fresh fruits to elevate your dining experience.
Beyond its taste, the Star Thistle Mead stands as a symbol of dedication to quality and authenticity. Its accolades, including a Gold Medal at the Mazer Cup International Mead Competition and a 93-point rating from Tastings.com, attest to its exceptional craftsmanship.
Whether you’re a seasoned mead aficionado or exploring this ancient beverage for the first time, St Ambrose Star Thistle Mead offers a delightful and memorable experience. Its harmonious blend of tradition, nature, and craftsmanship ensures that each sip is a journey worth savoring.
