Moniack Mead
Dec. 27th, 2015 10:38 am My daughter in law is allergic to grapes. Looking for an alternative drink for Xmas dinner, I decided upon mead. A couple of morris friends introduced me to Moniack Mead in the summer and it's very morish.
C said it sounded good, but she'd been told that some mead actually contained grape juice.
I followed up with Moniack to ask them if their mead was grape free. They said it was now, but only since February 2015 as they'd changed the recipe to pure honey at that point. Very kindly, (and this was only two days before Christmas, when they must have been pretty busy) they offered to check the bottle number for me to see which batch my bottle was from.
Pleased to say it was grape-free.
Thank you, Moniack Mead.
I think I may skip wine next Xmas, the mead tastes better. (Though you have to treat it with respect, as it's a very high alcohol content)
