Nov 23, 2009 750ml - Dark still gold. Sweet menthol honey aromas ride faint swirls of spicy berry throughout. Deep sweet thick honeycomb flavors ride a soft herbal vanilla foundation. Medium bodied, slick, lightly warming finish. Loved it, but be prepared for the sugar rush…

Jun 16, 2009 Pretty golden color. Aromatics of honey in nose.Thick, almost silky, body. Vanilla in the aftertaste. Almost a toothpaste-like flavor in there too.

May 9, 2009 Sweet, scary sweet. Very honeyish, but not too matural tasting- like the hard candy with honey inside and the bee on the wrapper. Thanks Oakes and Beershine.

May 9, 2009 Bottle. Pale yellow, flat but viscous. Strong honey and fig jam aromas. Sweet, almost wincingly sweet but has quite a bit going on in terms of fruity complexity and has a nice character.

May 8, 2009 Bottle from Oakes and Beershine. Yellow/gold pour. Aroma is full of honey and some sweet fruit. Flavor is damn sweet. But the nice fruit and good mouthfeel make this worth drinking. Nice.

May 8, 2009 Bottle, Whole Foods Miami Beach
Deep gold colour. Sweet, honeyish taste with some woody notes. Complex honey profile. Heavy body. Slight alcoholic finish. The texture is a bit syrupy - halfway between a drinking mead and a sipping (Polish) mead. But the flavour and complexity are good times.

Feb 28, 2009 Sample at the bevmo wine tasting. I’m slowly getting into meads so bare with me. Sweet nose of honey and some candied fruits. Flavor is much of the same, finish is sweet at first then ends up dry.

Dec 30, 2008 Bottle from BevMo. Served at the suggested room temperature. Pours with a clear yellow body with a few legs. Aroma is hot with alcohol and medicinal, with notes of sage and vanilla with a touch of white grape and vinegar brine. Taste is of olives, honey and light grassy notes. Slight effervescence and slightly syrupy.
