Jul 10, 2008 Full big round sweet honey nose. Lightly perfumed Citrus? is this made with orange blossom honey maybe? Nice true honey flavor. Rounded sweet clean and easy drinking. Very pleasant. Just a touch of alcohol. Dark gold color. A close match to Apis Poltorak Jadwiga, but less robust.

Hazy golden color. It has a glue and syrup aroma, some flowers; peculiar, but nice. Sweet flavor, there is a nice touch of honey; far from being cloying and syrupy. Different from the Danish ones (e.g. not herbal), but good.

Jun 20, 2008 Bottle. [After party @ Papsoe, thanks buddy] Nice pale golden color. Oily lacework in the glass. Aroma of honey, raisins, medicine, spice, alcohol. Over the palate came heavy raisins and almost herbal feel. Hide the alcohol very well. Full bodied with a flat carbonation and thick and mild alcoholic texture. Heavy sweet flavor. Spicy honey lingering finish. 7 / 3 / 7 / 3 / 15

Jun 20, 2008 Bottled. Golden coloured. Unclear. Sweetish, some barrel notes and prunes in the aroma. Flavour has prunes, honey and a lot of sweetness. In a pleasant way though. Nice body. Alcohol and sweetness in the end. Quite drinkable.

Jun 16, 2008 Enjoyed while hanging out at Redlight in Florida. I dont have a ton of Mead experience, but this is DEFINITELY what I like. SWEET SWEET SWEET. Pour was a dark golden honey color. Aroma was honey, flowers, lemon and apples. I LOVED it. Only could tolerate one glass of this at a time due to the very thick sweetness. Definitely an after dinner drink. But extremely enjoyable! Best mead I have had to date for sure!
