| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Nov 30, 2008 Alcohol is noticable in the aroma but not at all in the flavor - dangerously smooth and easy to drink; like apple juice really. Light but enjoyable body. Flavor is kind of boring and innocuous but still this is pretty good, very drinkable.

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Oct 25, 2008 Honey nose (of course,) with hints of pear. Nice yellow pour. Sweet but not too sweet, Flavor matches nose almost oerfectly. Meads aren’t my cup of tea, but I enjoyed this one. ucusty (1915), Wake Forest, North Carolina, USA

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Sep 20, 2008 My first ever mead. I thought it was ok, but give me beer any day please! Yellow pour with a very strong aroma of honey(shocker!) and wildflowers. Flavor isnt as sweet or rich as I would have expected. Honey flavor is there, some slight tartness.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 2/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Aug 26, 2008 A hazy light yellow mead. The aroma is sweet with strong notes of honey.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Aug 8, 2008 750 ml bottle. Pours a still shimmering light yellow.

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Aug 6, 2008 Pours still, uncarbonated with a light golden color. Nice aroma of pure honey, crisp apples, and pears. Smooth. Profoundly honey flavor is well-rendered. In spite of the strong honey, the palate is not sweet. Is off-dry. Also has apples, flowers, white grapes, gentle perfume. Really mellow yet potent. Vanilla, some spice in the back of the throat, almost leaving a peasant astringency without being dry. I like this a lot! Hazmatt (363), Virginia, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Aug 6, 2008 Bottle. My firstmead rating. Poured a pale golden color, wine like in texture, semi syrupy. Looks like a white wine. Fruity aroma, no detectable alcohol aroma. Very sweet, and somewhat vinuous, a pleasant honey flavor. Subtle fruit nots and a cough syrupy quality slightly detracts from overall flavor. I enjoyed this. Not much to base it on, but it was good.
