The Honey Distillery

Since 1994, Dansk Mjød has been brewing mead following old recipes on the outskirts of Billund, close to the Jutland heath. The Honey Distillery is the house's distillate branch, where honey becomes a round, full-bodied liqueur with a hint of anise. This is Danish craft uniting an ancient mead tradition with modern distillation.

About The Honey Distillery

The Honey Distillery is part of Dansk Mjød and makes honey-based liqueurs such as Nectar, a round, full-bodied liqueur with subtle sweetness and a tingling anise note. For newcomers it's an accessible, characterful liqueur that can be enjoyed with vermouth or tonic; commercially it's one of the more niche Danish spirits products, built on an old Danish drinking tradition.

History & Background

Dansk Mjød has been brewing mead based on old recipes since 1994 from its base on the outskirts of Billund, close to the Jutland heath. Over the years the company has expanded its range to include distillates under the name The Honey Distillery, where honey is transformed into liqueur rather than beer. The products combine ancient brewing traditions with a modern eye for flavour, often spiced with local herbs such as ginger, bog myrtle, and mead wort. This makes The Honey Distillery a continuation of a drinking tradition that in Denmark stretches all the way back to the Viking age.

Production & Style

The products are made from pure honey, giving them a natural sweetness and aromatic depth.
