Enat Tej Ethiopian Style Honey Wine Traditional

Brewed by Enat Winery
Style: Mead
Oakland, California USA

Still mead. Dark golden color. Aroma is interesting. Immediate aroma of honey, but a faint backend aroma of limberger cheese (I’m assuming that’s the malt/hops as this is my first tej). Pronounced honey flavor mixed with alcohols and again what I assume must be the hop additiona.. Immediate warming in the mouth and throat. Sweetness lingers on the palate for quite some time. Once I’ve had a chance to try some other Tej I may have to re-rate this one.
