Meinit

Meinit refers to a type of Ethiopian honey wine or tej. It is generally considered a lower-quality or less-refined version of tej. Distinctions in tej quality can arise from factors such as the type and amount of honey used, the preparation techniques, and the length of fermentation. Meinit often indicates a tej that is less sweet, more alcoholic, or produced with less expensive ingredients compared to premium varieties. The term might also suggest a home-brewed or less commercially available type of tej.
