Customer Reviews

Old but still pretty good

As an older book this one certainly has its charms. It is laced with dry English humor (or in this case humour) and a load of interesting and harder to find recipes (there is a whole section on older honey drinks like negus, bishop, boswell and caudle). While not great as a stand alone reference for the novice meadmaker it should be an interesting addition to any winemaker, meadmaker or beekeeper's library.
