Legendary TEJ, always made from pure honey, is the world’s earliest known fermented drink. In the Horn of Africa, TEJ has been produced for millennia to celebrate festive occasions.
This ancient drink, which has been made in many forms, can be enjoyed as cocktail or with food.
Traditionally TEJ has been used to toast the bride and groom on their wedding day.
TEJ is a perfect complement to spicy foods, sushi, desserts and at any social occasion.

Very pale color, with a yellowish-greenish hue. The aroma is very perfumy and flowery, plastic, maybe soapy too, with just some honey, close to the smell of The Body Shop. The mouthfeel is lean, but the flavor is semi-sweet, with clean flavor, some honey, flowery, with a correct degree of acidity, and a lime touch; at 11% the alcohol is more evident than it should. The final is pleasantly drier and lemony. Interesting.
