Description
Our company has existed since 1978 as a family company dedicated to beekeeping and bees.
In 1991, we began to produce meads, which are the foundation of our business. Our production technology has been built on the solid basis of old Polish traditions and recipes.
The company employs 16 people.
The owner is Maciej Jaros. His son, Marcin, is the chief technician. Marcin’s wife, Monika, is in charge of the quality control department and the laboratory. Another son, Bartłomiej, handles the technical department.
Maciej JarosA second section of the company deals in the production of useful and decorative ceramics (packs of honey and mead, honey drinking vessels, etc.).
Our meads are produced with natural methods, without preservatives, enhancers, artificial colors and flavors. The raw material for their production is bee honey, water and herbs. Its outstanding and unique taste is reached during several years of aging.
We were first in the production of fizzy mead. „Lipiec Perlisty” is named due to the length of time it takes for the honey to ripen (a few years). It was subjected process of saturation.
The main types of meads produced by our company:
Półtorak – formed by mixing one part honey with a half part water. Due to the high concentration of sugars, fermentation takes a long time and mead matures after about nine years of aging.
Dwójniak – formed by mixing one part honey with one part water. Dwójniak is a sweet honey with maturation lasting more than four years.
Trójniak – formed by mixing one part honey with two parts water. This is semi-sweet mead, with maturation lasting around a year.
Fruit meads are produced by replacing at least 30% of water for fermentation with fruit juice. Dwójniak Maliniak is formed by the addition of raspberry juice. Dwójniak Jabłkowy is formed with the addition of apple juice. Półtorak Gronowy is formed by adding grape juice to the mead.

Bottle sample at Miodosytnia, pours a clear straw colour. Nose is complex, with lots of sweet honey nectar, a little bees wax and some treacle. Flavour really brings out a wonderful honey character, with lots of syrup, loving bees wax, and treacle. Intensely sweet but amazingly well-balanced. Phenomenal.

Bottle sample at Specja?y Regionalne, pours a clear copper. Aroma brings out pure honey nectar, a little wood and slight oxidation. Flavour is intensely complex, with dense honey nectar, liqueur-like syrup and light alcohol. Syrup, dense palate, with intense sweetness. Unbelievably elegant product. Lovely.

Bottle sample at Specja?y Regionalne, pours a clear amber. Aroma is intense, with sweet red berries, bit of grape, intense honey nectar and alcohol. Flavour is very syrupy, with intense honey nectar, treacly notes, and light alcohol. The alcohol is incredibly well hidden. Body is syrupy and amazingly deep. Wonderful product.

Bottle sample at Specja?y Regionalne, pours a clear copper golden. Nose brings out fairly light honey nectar, with light treacle and plenty of alcohol. Flavour is quite hot, with lots of alcohol, honey nectar, and sweet red berries. Quite hot and cloying, but it works really well. Very good.

Bottle sample at Specja?y Regionalne, pours a clear straw blonde. Nose reveals mild herbal notes upfront that mix nicely with treacly honey nectar. Flavour is a bit harsh, with high perfumey alcohols upfront, followed by sweet honey nectar, and subdued herbal notes. A little harsh and perhaps lacking the depth of some other products by this producer. But it's quite lovely.

Bottle sample at Specja?y Regionalne, pours a clear straw colour. Nose brings out subtle lime, with subdued honey nectar - interesting. Flavour is more intense, with loads of sweet honey nectar, a lovely lime incorporation and a surprisingly hidden alcohol burn. Cohesive and elegant. Lovely.

Bottle sample at Nowina, pours a clear caramel with a purpleish tinge - it starts cloudy and then clears up. Aroma is unusual, with lots of dark red grape juice, almost in a medicinal way, but it works pretty well - the honey is only mildly detectable. Flavour is almost like cough syrup, beige dominated by the grape juice. There's a fair degree of acidity and even some tannins, almost resembling a red wine. The honey is in the background, contributing sweetness without being very prominent in actual character. This is too close to cough syrup for me, so I don't really appreciate it all that much.
