Bottle ($14.99). Pours a clear, golden yellow color, with no head but medium legs. The aroma is interesting. Sesame seeds and dates predominate. Cinnamon, cork, cedar continue. Earthy, spicy, persimmon; surprisingly complex! Buttery, complex. Pappy [bourbon, (very) good bourbon] like vanilla tones. I am liking this more with each sniff. Taste is dry, oaky, cork, sesame, lots of vanilla, date and aged bourbon barrel usage. I am surprisingly LOVING this, and I was expecting another mediocre Rabbit’s Foot product. Very dry, very complex. Peppery, like some very fine and expensive wines I have had the pleasure of trying. Pungent and a tad vinous. Thick and weighted mouthfeel. Holy crap, count me as very pleasantly surprised by this one!!!! Overall: a super COMPLEX and bourbon like mead from a otherwise mediocre meadery!
