Gwires is a crystal clear, vibrant drink with a floral, honeyed bouquet and a warm rounded finish, 40% abv. with a subtle honey after-taste. 
Sold in 35 cl bottles, it will inevitably be compared and categorised alongside classic single malt whisky, calvados, eau de vie and such-like...

The name "Gwires", pronounced gwi'rez, is taken from the Cornish word meaning alcoholic spirit. The essence of all Ninemaidens drinks lies in the delicacy of our unique Cornish flora. From this nectar source, our honey is fermented to produce mead of the highest quality, and thereafter distilled into a clean, honey scented spirit. Gwires is a crystal clear, vibrant drink with a floral, honeyed bouquet and a warm rounded finish.
