Mead one of 'Britain's Best Foods'

The Independent newspaper's magazine, The Information, recently voted our English Mead one of Britain's best foods. A panel of experts including food writers and retailers awarded English Mead eleventh place in their list of 'The 50 Best British Foods'.

One of the judges, popular restaurateur Rick Stein, has also featured the Winery in his new BBC Food Heroes series and book. The New York Times Magazine described our mead as the 'Dom Pérignon of the genre'. John Tucker and Neil O'Malley of New York's Rose Water restaurant, 'offer Lurgashall's complex, not-too-sweet special reserve as a digestif, and also poured over ripe peaches or nectarines and housemade vanilla ice cream as an elegant seasonal dessert special'.

We were awarded a silver medal in Japan at the Barakura English Garden Show which is a prestigious, invitation only event. Our products were very highly praised and we have been invited to attend at the next event.

After extensive product testing and sampling, we shall be releasing our Citrus Mead in the coming year and are presently testing other new products for release.
