Jan 19, 2008 (Bottle) Pours a thick golden color with no head. Low carbonation, if any. Sweet, syrupy aroma. Taste is sweet as well, with hints of vanilla and corn syrup. Excellent palate for the style. Mouthfeel was very thick. This mead had the consistency of motor oil. Distinct alcoholic notes as well. I can appreciate this for what it is, but I likely won’t be buying it again any time soon.

Jan 11, 2008 Reddish golden colored pour with no head – it is still. Nose is reminiscent of Irish whiskey but sweeter. Mouthfeel is sticky and slick, more like a liqueur than a mead. Flavor is apples, brown sugar, and dark fruits – very nice!

Jan 10, 2008 I will get flamed like hell for this, but I just don’t see it. The Olympic Cellars was so much more refined and subtle. Lumfest 2008- Clear brown color and smelled of communion wine. That element followed straight to the taste- strong communion wine. Flame away.

Pours a great redish golden with no head, nice lacing of alcohol on the glass. Aroma is great, sweet but balanced. Light honey, oak, maple, port and apples. Super sticky oily mouthfeel. Very sweet flavour, raisins dominating amongst soft maple honey. Then is burns a little from the alcohol before exploding with a stunning mix of flowers, apples and light raspberries. Impressive.

Jan 6, 2008 I was very surprised to be able to try the top rated mead, special thanks to the folks who brought this! Pours a clear garnet with tan highlights and really sticky legs along the glass. Pretty hot on the nose, but there’s plenty of vanilla, maple, and rum. Tastes sweeter than a spoonful of sugar, and damn if I didn’t love the flavor. Tons of maple, vanilla, brown sugar, honey and raisins. Very thick, sticky, and incredibly good, unfortunately my notes don’t go beyond that. The other mead I had was Chaucer’s and after much though, I decided I like this better.

Dec 31, 2007 Basket-covered bottle, thanks to after4ever! Pours a clear reddish brown with no head but great legs. Aroma of honey and nuts. Full, sweet body. Intense, concentrated taste of honey, nuts, maybe a dash of berries. Tasty!
