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.

full body, medium sweetness, golden, Unique product hand crafted in small batches. Very limited distribution. If you are lucky enough to see it BUY IT.

15 DEC 07, Southeast YeHa. 750ml bottle. Looks like a Brandy bottle. Pours like liquid honey. Aroma of sweet mead and cork. WOW! No alcohol presence. Nothing but sweet sugary honey. Like an over-sweetened southern sweet tea. PDer! Supersweet!

Bottle. Pours a dark copper color, still, no lacing, and gold highlights. Sugary sweet aromas of honey and brown sugar, some caramel, too. Flavor is very sweet, and seemingly balanced with tons of honey and caramel, and some very sweet molasses. Body is packed with tons of sweets and candy. So incredibly drinkable. You can’t take giant sips of it, but you will drink a lot of it in a short time.

Golden colored body is still with legs. Sweet honey aroma with some alcohol in the nose. Thick and sweet taste. Honey dominates with very light floral aspects, a tinge of alcohol and that’s it. Very well done. If you like Jadwiga, then this baby is for you!

Thanks for bringing this to the 06 Atlanta YEHA! Boboski. A dark golden appearance. It was very oily looking almost like pouring cooking oil in a glass. The aroma was floral with a huge honey presence. The alcohol can be detected in the aroma. The flavor is very sweet and warming. Some maple syrup and honey shows through. Overall a nice dessert beverage. I could see smoking a cigar with this one.

Pours a clear copper. Heavy aroma of honey and spiced green apples. Taste is like eating fresh honey comb with spiced green apples. Medium sweet mouthfeel that hides the alcohol very well. I don’t like mead but this stuff is damn good.

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.
