Of all the several meads I’ve tasted that are not wine based, this is the best by far. With St Pelagrino water it makes a refreshing and satishying spritzer.

The only other mead I have ever had was RedStone’s Juniper -- which tastes like some sort of warped apple sake -- so I was hesitant to even try another. Fortunately, this was the follow-up, and it is amazing. It tastes pure, as if the mead was just a natural-occurring process from honey itself. It’s sweet, not overly so, and I barely detected the alcohol here whatsoever-- which is amazing at 13%. I think it’s beautiful.

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.

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
