   About Us
ELSA Wine and Mead takes pride in offering, TEJ, a delicious traditional Ethiopian honey wine made of the finest honey blended with fruits, herbs and spices. Managed by Girma Kebede, it brings a splendid treat to honey wine lovers in the United States and around the world. Girma's ancestors, beginning with his great grandmother, have been producing TEJ in their native country, Ethiopia, for many years. Since this was a family business and his family's home was then located adjacent to the winery, he has been involved with TEJ literally all his life. At age 14, he was fully involved with the family business. Today, his family continues to produce TEJ in multiple places in a greater quantity. When Girma moved to the U.S. in 1985, he continued to produce the wine for personal consumption and for some close friends.

TEJ wine is a very special and traditional wine in his home country. It is the favorite drink of his people and is served for all occasions: family holy days, gatherings with friends, among others. Because TEJ is such a special drink and is coming back in the U.S, you can find it in almost all Ethiopian restaurants in the U.S..

Today, ELSA WINE and Mead supplies TEJ to restaurants-both Ethiopian and non-Ethiopian, and to wine lovers.
