The Honey Distillery
The Honey DistilleryThe Honey Distillery is part of Dansk Mjød, located on the outskirts of Billund, close to the Jutland heath. Since 1994, Dansk Mjød has been brewing mead based on ancient recipes with an uncompromising focus on quality and raw ingredients. Their products combine age-old brewing traditions with a modern approach to taste and quality. One of their products is Nectar from The Honey Distillery, a white liqueur made from honey with an alcohol content of 40%. It is described as smooth and full-bodied with a warm mouthfeel. The sweetness from the honey is subtle yet unique, and the liqueur has an intriguing taste of anise and "Kongen af Danmark" candy. It can be enjoyed with vermouth or tonic. Their products are known for their complex flavor profiles, often combining the sweetness of honey with warm, woody notes from ingredients such as ginger, bog myrtle, and meadowsweet. These liqueurs can be enjoyed neat or used as a gin substitute in cocktails, especially those based on fruits like red berries and apples. For the best tasting experience, they are recommended to be served ice-cold and with ice. The Honey Distillery's products are an exciting choice for those who wish to explore unique Danish spirits based on honey and traditional brewing methods. |
