Bottle shared at Maakun’s. Dark red. Sweet floral honey, black and red currants. Big sweet mostly with some tartness. Massive rich sweetness and creamy smooth velvety feel. Full body and low or no carbonation. About as delicious as it gets.

Bottle pour at Schramm's, pours a deep dark red. Aroma is very thorny, with lots of currant pith upfront. Flavour is decadent, with gently tart currants, moderate honey-like presence, and moderate-high sweetness (for Schramm's). Really expert use of the currants. Excellent.

Pour at Schramm's. Pours a deep blood red color. Blackcurrant forward nose with nice earthy notes and some light jammy redcurrant as it warms. More earthy notes on the palate with stem and seed flavors that go well with the fruit. Again, just a perfect body and texture on the palate. Lingering blackcurrant and earth.

Extraordinary melomel, and here I was thinking these regular Schramms were killing it. Tons of flavour, huge amount of fruit. Sweet honey, balanced by tart fruit and something woody. Massively flavourful, bit of alcohol, highly drinkable.

Bottle: Poured a dark maroon red with a bubble head. Aroma is mixed currants, black dominant. Taste is sweet honey with tart black and red currants balance. Very tasty!

Light to dark purple. No head.green apple skin, dry, tart, sour aroma with urban. Whoa. The sum of the parts is way better than the individual ingredients. It’s tart, almost our with a thick oily substance. Green apple, pear, cherry and currant.great Irish.
