It is believed that the tradition of brewing mead on Lindisfarne began during the time of the early Christian monks who inhabited the island’s renowned Lindisfarne Priory. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2022-09-08T14:47:54+01:00","sort_order":"manual","template_suffix":"","disjunctive":true,"rules":[{"column":"vendor","relation":"equals","condition":"Lindisfarne Spirit"},{"column":"vendor","relation":"equals","condition":"Lindisfarne"},{"column":"vendor","relation":"equals","condition":"Lindisfarne Spirits"}],"published_scope":"global","image":{"created_at":"2022-10-06T10:27:12+01:00","alt":null,"width":239,"height":211,"src":"\/\/www.northumbriangifts.co.uk\/cdn\/shop\/collections\/LINDLOGO.png?v=1665048432"}},{"id":270079557745,"handle":"mead-1","title":"Mead","updated_at":"2026-05-17T12:05:55+01:00","body_html":"","published_at":"2022-07-17T08:05:12+01:00","sort_order":"manual","template_suffix":"","disjunctive":false,"rules":[{"column":"tag","relation":"equals","condition":"Mead"}],"published_scope":"global"},{"id":270079492209,"handle":"speciality-fruit-wines-meads-and-international-wines","title":"Speciality Fruit Wines, Meads and International Wines","updated_at":"2026-05-17T12:05:55+01:00","body_html":"\u003cp\u003eA carefully curated collection of local and international wine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a family business for 20 years, we taste all our bottles to bring you our favourite wines from all around the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpeciality fruit wines, wonderful reds, refreshing whites, tasty rosés and fizzing sparkling wines\u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2022-07-17T08:04:36+01:00","sort_order":"manual","template_suffix":"","disjunctive":true,"rules":[{"column":"tag","relation":"equals","condition":"Wine"}],"published_scope":"global"}]
Produced at St Aidan's Winery on the tidal island of Lindisfarne — Holy Island — off the Northumberland coast, Lindisfarne Dark Mead is a drink steeped in history. At 14.5% ABV, this rich fortified wine was created to honour the region's heritage from Roman times to the present day, and is crafted using a blend of honeys sourced worldwide, including honey from hives on the banks of the River Tweed.
In the glass, the deeper amber colour hints at what's to come — a richer, more complex character than the Traditional Mead, with a full-bodied warmth that lingers beautifully. Fans of port and sherry will feel immediately at home, yet find something genuinely distinctive and Northumbrian.
A distinctive dark mead, available in 70cl, 35cl, and 5cl — an ideal pre or after-dinner drink, and a truly memorable gift for anyone who appreciates something with real depth and provenance.
