Mead
The Knight Shop offer one of the best selections of mead for sale in the UK. Mead was produced throughout ancient history in Europe, Africa and Asia and is basically wine that is made from honey. It was especially prevalent in Nordic countries where grapes did not grow. Celtic, Saxon and Viking warriors all gathered in their lord’s mead hall to consume mead in large quantities whilst listening to tales of heroes and monsters and boasting of their own exploits!
Our range of mead is sourced from across the UK and Europe and is available in many different flavours. It comes in a variety of bottles such as glass and stoneware flasks in sizes to suit all budgets. For an authentic mead drinking experience why not purchase one of our drinking horns or horn mugs?! If you are purchasing your mead as a gift check out our range of wooden gift boxes and chests – a better alternative than wrapping paper!

Tyr's Mead - 700ml
Tyr (Old Norse meaning ‘God’) is associated with war, law, justice and honour.
Learn More
Tyr’s Mead is an Orange Melomel, derived from our popular ‘Freya’s’ mead, but using different honey’s to get a lighter yet full flavour. We have blended Vitex honey, from the Chaste Tree which is grown for its berries, with a Ukranian Wildflower honey and allowed a natural fermentation to occur to allow flavours of the Mediterranean and Ukraine to permeate through with underlying citrus notes.
Tyr’s mead has a slightly softer, cleaner, citrus taste, making it a firm favourite with drinkers of prosecco and light white wines.

Odin Gift Set
Odin is the ‘Allfather’ in Norse mythology. He is the God of battle and also of wisdom, magic, and poetry.
Learn More
His name means ‘fury’ or ‘frenzy’, the quality of fierce inspiration that guided warriors and poets alike.
A solid pewter bracelet that is based on silver ones from the Viking age. Chunky, yet highly detailed with Odin's raven head terminals at each end. Odin's ravens were called Hugin and Munin - Thought and Memory.
It weighs approx. 70g and has an internal length of approx. 18cm plus the gap between the heads, and is handmade in Scotland.
This mead is a traditional ‘Metheglin’ (herbed honey mead). The tannins give the mead a more ‘full bodied’ flavour, making it a firm favourite for drinkers who like oaked red wine, real ales or casked whiskey. We achieve this remarkable flavour simply by adding tea to the fermentation process. This gives the Mead a Whiskey-esque top palette.
