Our Heather honey traditional mead explodes with Scottish Heather honey, known for it’s incredibly vibrant aromatics and flavors, which bear a strong resemblance to those of Scotch Whisky. It is among the dearest of honeys, fetching high prices for it’s mesmerizingly fruity, woody and complex nature. The honey and the mead can both be accurately described as boldly perfumed, uninhibited and resplendent.

Faint yellow thick and oily. Smells like the most fresh an amazing honeycomb just raw and uncut. Amazing. The flavor is awesome. Straight honey, loads of honey just delicious. Honey comb, raw honey, banana and apple. The purest expression of heather honey mead. Seriously (latest batch 2019 batch 2?)

Batch 1 bottle received in a joint trade. Tiny hazy very deep brownish golden pour leaving plenty of legs on the glass with a swirl. Intense unique heather honey nose with moist soil, different mushrooms, dried pine needles & of course heather twigs. Sweet, earthy & richly complex taste. Oily, viscous, round & tiny boozy mouthfeel. Lingering heather honey finish. Damn good & really unique. we had some Swedish heather honey side-by-side with this & the honey presentation in the mead is perfect. Very impressive traditional! --- Beer merged from original tick of Schramm's Heather Traditional on 29 Apr 2017 at 18:07 - Score: 8.
