Origin: A borrowing from Welsh. Etymon: Welsh meddyglyn.

Etymology: < Welsh meddyglyn (13th cent. in sense ‘medicine, potion, elixir’; 14th cent. in sense ‘a drink of (esp. spiced) mead’) < meddyg healer, doctor (13th cent.; < classical Latin medicus medic n.¹) + llyn liquor (see linn n.¹).The sense-development in Welsh is influenced by the reinterpretation of the first element of the word as being connected with medd mead n.¹, an interpretation which may also be reflected in the form in quot. c1450 at main sense. The English form was reborrowed into Welsh in the non-medicinal sense in the 18th cent. The 17th-cent. forms Mathew Glinn, Mathew Glynne, Matthewglin, Matthew Glinn are alterations, by folk etymology, after the male forename Matthew, compare:1637 J. Taylor Drinke & Welcome sig. A3 Matthew Glinn..is generally received by the History of Monmoth, to be the Author's name of this Mellifluous mixture; for this Matthew dwelling in a Valley (for so the word Glinn imports Englished from the Welsh) being master of a very great stocke of Bees, and wanting vent for the issue of their labours, in an abundant yeare betooke himselfe..to his study [etc.].

Now historical and regional.

A spiced or medicated variety of mead, originally esp. popular in Wales.
