Hydromel doux au miel de garrigue, bouteille en grès 75 cl

Humanity’s oldest fermented drink: Neolithic, which has never been lost.We owe its durability from the 19th to the 20th century to the Bretons and Alsatians who have never stopped making it with their local honeys.

The principle is simple, spring water, honey and natural yeasts, which ferment slowly for several weeks.

The Domaine du Cardona elaborates a mead from garrigue honey, by oenological method and on some cuvées the aging is done in earthen jars (modern amphorae of 160 l).

The mead can be enjoyed iced, heated and flavoured, it often returns nowadays in the making of many cocktails.

It is also used in cooking for de-icing (foie gras) and marinade for its meat tenderizing power.
