Schramm's Mead in Ferndale, Michigan, United States 🇺🇸

Schramm’s Raspberry is a mead made from whole Michigan raspberries. The flavor is unmistakably fruity raspberry, reminiscent of Michigan summers, and is balanced by honey sweetness. Due to the high level of acidity from the berries, it can age gracefully for many years. A tribute to our home state’s strong fruit growing tradition, this was the first mead made by head meadmaker Ken Schramm. It holds a special place in our history as well as our cellar. This melomel pairs well with grilled Great Lakes salmon, salads, cheesecake, and summer evening bonfires by the lake.

Bottle. Nose is raspberry, strawberry, currant, it's like falling into a berry field. Taste is super jammy, raspberry, not as super easy going in the middle, but quite smooth in the end. That tiny sting in the middle stops it from getting a near perfect score. (2 years layer) This bad boy has gotten even smoother. I would go as far as 4.6 now

Bottle, thank you Gregg! Beautiful pink pour, no carbonation but otherwise clear. Nose is full on raspberry character, light honey and does not feel sticky or too sweet. Just the right balance. Taste has also lots of raspberry, sweet but not syrupy. Very well balanced, warming but not boozy. Huu-uge raspberry. Loving this, could be the best mead I have had till now.
